Comment (by lunaticinterior):

 I just signed up to bemoan this regression and ask for it to be changed
 back. This really impacts the usability of the application and of all my
 friends who use Pidgin, not a single one likes it (most have already
 downgraded to 2.3, and the rest will soon).

 Why are the developers being so obstinate? It's beyond me. This is a
 change that has only pissed people off and harmed your project. I now no
 longer recommend Pidgin to neophytes, and I will be contributing time and
 money to the FunPidgin fork.

 What a terrible idea, and what terrible arrogance on display here by the
 developers, free software or not.
