(Gajim was gnomed since June actually, Void Linux repos didn’t update to the new iteraction until a few days ago though so I wasn’t aware.)

Gajim was the best XMPP client for desktops, with a nice UI and all the features I’d ever need in a messenger (YMMV).

So of course it should have been turned upside-down with a UI redesign that removes compatibility with GTK3 themes while also looking extremely out of place on my system. Modern GUI design suck SO MUCH.

    The latest pre-libadwaita version of Gajim is 2.2.0, I don’t think there were any problems with that version.

    It also locks up whenever we try dragging a picture into the chat window to send.

    I remember that Gajim installed from Flatpak wouldn’t allow drag’n’drop functionality at all.

      Funnily enough, Gajim from Flatpak (1.9.5) does drag and drop just fine!

      I can’t remember what version we’ve got on our laptop– [can’t we just check packages.debian.org?] right! It’s 2.1.1-2, apparently. Good to hear that 2.2.0 is non-adwaitified, that sounds like a good place to fork from.
