J.C Posted July 6, 2014 Share Posted July 6, 2014 (edited) So, as we now, Microsoft is shutting down/shut down the Windows Live Messenger, and now they dropped support for SkypeKit as you guys can see here:> http://blog.trillian.im/?p=2999Trillian not working with Skype anymore. So, what's the option? The Skype app for Windows 8.1 s**ks. Any option for a Multi service client (Skype + Google Talk)?

mikie Posted July 6, 2014 Share Posted July 6, 2014 (edited) " The Skype app for Windows 8.1 s**ks"Skype Desktop for win 8.1 still works as a separate program.. Then its your call to uninstall Skype modern UI or not. Edited July 7, 2014 by mikie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J.C Posted July 6, 2014 Author Share Posted July 6, 2014 People really should read and interpret the question, I asked if anyone knows a good MULTI-SERVICE CLIENT for Windows, one guy says Hangouts (GTalk only, web-based) and the other Skype Desktop (Skype only)...

H4rDw4rE Posted July 7, 2014 Share Posted July 7, 2014 (edited) As far as I know there is no such application which support all you need.I know that Pidgin support many protocols, but you have to try it (didn't use it for more than 3 years).On their page I saw plugins for skype.Got there and check what Pidgin support.Edit:Just found:http://code.google.com/p/skype4pidgin/https://support.google.com/talk/answer/24073?hl=en Edited July 7, 2014 by H4rDw4rE® Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used Trillian, Pidigin and many others but they are all bug now, regarding MSN/Skype. I need to know one that works with Skype even after the shit that M$ did. Google Talk/IRC/bla bla bla is all easy to configure and use in ANY of these multi-service clients, the only problem is MSN/Skype, thanks to M$... :( Edited July 8, 2014 by J.C Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
