We’ve been keeping this somewhat quiet, but it’s time to be **LOUD**!! Gaim 3 exists!!

It is a new from scratch GTK4 interface on top of libpurple 3 reproducing the Pidgin 2/Gaim interface!

You can find more information about about at the official website [gaim.imfreedom.org](https://gaim.imfreedom.org)!!
