I love classic IM apps, and I want to give the macOS instant messaging app "Adium" a complete rejuvenation for Apple Silicon because it's last update was over 5 years ago and I've needed a good XMPP client for Mac because I've started using it. But almost the WHOLE. THING. is written in Objective-C, containing no Swift code whatsoever. It's so old, it still has growl (old 3rd party macOS notification system before Apple introduced native notifications) within it. And I know that doing so would be very, very difficult.
