Why Yahoo still has a bad messenger for Linux?
 

Hello all,
Why Yahoo still has a bad messenger for Linux? There is no place to actually complain about that, and yahoo doesn't bother about Linux users either. Why does yahoo keeps a step brotherly attitude towards Linux.

Are you stuck with yahoo? If not try using google for a front page or create your own start page with a website and just forget about them.

If you are stuck with yahoo then you will have to deal with it. Try another messenger like aim or ICQ

I use Pidgin with the Linux distro I use. It has all the benefits of several different im clients without the malware (Yahoo carp).

Get Pidgin here... Download | Pidgin

I would agree with Wombat. Pidgin is a good program.

Hello there,
Yahoo is getting more and more worse because of its security defects .Its getting worse day by day. Try using pidgin or g talk.

It's no harder to use Pidgin than any other IM application whether it's in Linux, Winders, and a Mac version...

I suppose you could try an alternate loggin platform, something along the lines of trillian.

The OP want's a Linux IM app.

Trillian is only available for Windows at present, although a Mac version is in alpha testing at this point in time...
