Whelp, we finally committed to releasing an experimental release of Pidgin 3.0 by the end of the year! To be clear, this is a **pre-alpha** release, but you can read more here https://discourse.imfreedom.org/t/pidgin-3-0-0-experimental-1-announcement/216
Hey everyone, we just released version 0.13.0 of Ibis our #IRCv3 library that we've built for the #IRC support in @pidgin 3!
The big feature in this release is that we're parsing formatting and making it available to users of the library so they can display formatted messages. See the screen shot for what that looks like in Pidgin 3 experimental 2!!
You can find the official release announcement here! https://discourse.imfreedom.org/t/ibis-0-13-0-has-been-released
So @pidgin 3.0 Experimental 2 is due out on Monday and we realized we could probably sneaking message formatting in for #IRCv3 in the last few days.
This still needs some work, but check out the Pidgin 2 vs 3 handling of message formatting...
I thought we fixed the italics stuff in Pidgin 2 awhile, but apparently not.
Anyways this is all spec complaint per https://modern.ircdocs.horse/formatting
If you have any questions, comments, etc feel free!
