Just like Pidgin it supports Buddy Pounces too but this program's list of supported protocols is much more impressive than Pidgin's. I'm considering running this under WINE.
I installed it under wine, you can get it running along with the cool skin but I couldn't figure out how to install extra protocols. Also upon inspection it turns out most of the protocols they're boasting is really badly supported, like the whatscrapp protocol can't even send msgs by default. For Telesham it's hard to get contacts syncronized. My impression is that it's a dumb time sink, pidgin has decent protocol support and works natively under linSUCKS so I recommend that instead.
I used Miranda IM circa 2006-2011 for popular then messengers (ICQ, some hotmail-based one, yahoo, jabber), it was pretty cool.
Old Skool.
