Jabber and GTalk/Hangouts

[zlotowinfo]

we have facebook chat, do we need hangouts?
until facebook plugin works, i think not

Why using hangouts? Probably because not all people uses Facebook or whatsapp and have their contacts on Hangouts.

Unfortunately the support on Miranda is very limited, the last issue is that if I add a contact using his/her google mail account, it results ever offline.
If I use the "encrypted" id provided by hangouts (I suppose it has been created to protect contact's email) I see the contact's status correctly.
The strange thing is that it is true only for contacts added in the last period, while old contacts works fine with their unencrypted user name.

really don't know somebody who use hangouts
don't know anybody who not use facebook

Now you know one
And I ensure you I'm not the only one.

Maybe the different region, maybe the different age. Maybe simply different people. The world is beautiful because it is various.

im on facebook to advertise pages, all polish are on facebook, in Poland hangouts aren't popular
i looked hangouts for me it's only simple messanger one from many in the world
with very expensive rates to call phones
0,54-0,94pln Hangouts
0,29pln GSM
0,03-13pln VOIP

without miranda support for me hangouts is useless & can die

That's why I hope for a better support from Miranda. 

At the moment I use it with a limited support (enough for a basic usage, anyway), but there are some main feature that I think should be available, such as receive massages arrived when offline, fix the issue of offline contacts if added with their unencrypted user name and maybe an history database synchronization.
