Adium
A free instant messaging application for macOS that can connect to XMPP (Jabber), IRC and more.·adium.im
Adium is a free and open-source instant messaging client for macOS, built on Apple's Cocoa API and the libpurple protocol library. It lets users connect to many different IM services simultaneously from a single contact list, with features like tabbed chats, themeable message windows, OTR encryption, and file transfer. Adium does not host any IM services itself; it is a third-party client for services run by others.
