I stopped using it when a patch had the tendency to freeze up my win10 machines. Protocol support is decent if not all inclusive. You can configure pretty much everything which is both good and bad depending on how much time and energy you like to spend fiddling. MirandaNG however is decent if you’re willing to put in some time and effort in to customizing things the way you like it. Miranda(the one you specifically asked about): I typically use the NG fork though I’ve noticed the core Miranda is finally getting updates again. Pidgin once boasted the largest and best 3rd party plugin library of them all, but now days that’s dried up considerably and many of those plugins are no longer maintained and buggy if not outright broken. So when you load it up you may find some features missing that you would otherwise expect to see in this type of application.

Also, this program came from the linux world and in my experience linux developers often act like runway models: they’re full of their own self importance and scream to the high heavens about fat (bloat) when they only weigh 25kilo. The biggest problem I’ve had with it is the core team – they were never overly interested in holding any type of discussion this was the way it was going to be and if you didn’t like it you were free to eff off (though I’ll admit I haven’t been around in a while so they may have mellowed or left completely by now). Pidgin: I have a strong love/hate relationship with this one.

Trillian is also the only one that has a half way decent Android version, though that too is pay and not entirely bug free. Long gone are the days of the Trillian team being basement dwelling rebel developers reverse engineering the Big Boy’s IM protocols. And they want to charge for this or make you put up with ads and other annoyances. The development is glacial at best, new protocol support is gone, and they took down their own community sites that hosted what few plugin/theme developers remained.
Now for the BUT: if you’re starting fresh I would avoid it like the plague. It is typically fast, responsive, and lightest on resources when doing equal comparisons. Trillian is my favourite BUT – and I need to emphasize that “but” – it is only because I’ve had it for so long that I managed to fall in to a lifetime premium account and had local copies of most of the addons, plugins, themes, and whatnots that had been developed. One of the few dinosaurs left that still uses various IM protocols for my primary communications so I tend to bounce around between the multi-protocol applications.
