The auto-resize input field is a terrible feature. The developers will not change it back. The community has asked, and they are basically ignoring us. I am looking for a pidgin alternative. I have removed Pidgin from my PC and started using Meebo exclusively. If anyone knows of another good multiprotocol IM client that isn't called Trillian please leave a message here. </p> I really don’t like Pidgin anymore since 2.4.0.

Had some other quirks like the two line entry window which claims to have been changed in the latest iteration but doesn’t seem to work.
Trillian is just a richer experience all round.
