AIM have no plans to create a messaging client forUbuntu, a company spokesman has said.
The announcement comes after ‘Support for Ubuntu’ became the most popular suggestion on their ‘User Voice‘ feedback service.
Marking the idea as ‘declined’ AIM product manager Adam writes:
“Sorry, we won't be able to get to this in the short term, but may eventually add it in the future. Thanks for your feedback.”
AIM isn’t the first company to fly in the face of user demand. Calls for Adobe to port their Creative Suite to Linux have also failed in persuading support for the platform.
Recently Revamped
The AIM chat clients for Windows, OS X, iOS and Android were revamped and relaunched in 2011. A web app for transient chatters using the service was also launched.
All is not lost for AIM users. Pidgin and Empathy – arguably the most popular IM clients available on Linux – both support the AIM service. The new AIM web-application also works in Ubuntu.
