That sure takes me back. Pidgin's logging defaults are the reason I still have all my AIM chats from 2002 - 2010.

tbh GTK2 feels superior to GTK4, though I'm glad it's still being developed.

I'm mildly interested to test it once their from scratch reimplementation of the XMPP backend works. Maybe I can then finally stop screaming at people that still use Pidgin as an xmpp client despite it being at least 15 years out of date.
