Detail info on installation is here: HowToUse AdBlock TypeOfAddon To Block ADs/etc In Basic WebBrowser and HowToUse Basic WebServices in Basic WebBrowser. Inside TB web-browser tab, you may need to stop annoying & privacy-rights violating ADs/deceptions, So you may need to get AdBlock type of addon's XPI file from Mozilla Firefox addons website, and then load that XPI file inside TB if the addon is not available in TB addons website : get uBlock Origin addon, (imo, its better than AdBlock addon in many aspects). If you want to use more (advanced) features from Google-Hangouts web-service (aka: GH network, previously aka: GT network) then do this : TB includes basic web-browser (aka: lightweight web-browser), so a web-browser tab can be opened-up inside TB, and used to connect with Google-Hangouts web-service (aka: GH network) website directly, to send/receive IM messages with your any contacts-list/address-book.TB is created with C, C++, JavaScript, CSS, Rust, XUL, XBL. TB also supports instant messaging and chat using IRC, XMPP, Twitter, (Yahoo-Messenger, Skype, Facebook, etc 1), it can also function as News Client, Feed Reader, etc. But it supports only basic features: text chat. TB has builtin 1 ability/feat to connect with Google-Talk 1/Google-Hangouts 1 text messaging web-service (aka: network). SOLUTION (for Catalina & Mojave users) is, use THUNDERBIRD. Simple & trustworthy, and more uptodate, and more devs supported, and more user supported, etc based TB (since v?) has began to include GPG 1 tool, and from TB v78 (for Windows/Linux/Unix, & different version ? on macOS) it transitioned to use builtin OpenPGP 1, 2, 3, so separate GPG/PGP tool not needed anymore), so user/you can send+receive digitally signed and/or encrypted emails with it, for free. Thunderbird 1, 2 (TB) is a better alternative choice for some of those missing options. (See detail instruction & goto bottom side for more info, if you have time)ĮXTRA INFO, PLEASE SKIP READING BELOW, IF YOU DON'T HAVE TIME :Īpple has removed many other supports from many other Apple apps, and if you were depended on those, then Another option is to use a HyperVisor 1 (aka: Virtualization 1) app (f.e.: VirtualBox) to run another/second instance of a macOS (f.e.: High-Sierra as a guest macOS), inside a guest virtual Mac computer/machine in the host macOS Mojave/Catalina/BigSur, and use the "Messages.app" with GH network support/feature & other apps inside guest macOS, as specific feature necessary for user is missing(aka: not-present) in host macOS.(See detail instruction shown below for more info, if you have time) at this moment, i would suggest to use an alternative & trustworthy app that can connect with Google-Hangouts/GH/GT network, which is: Thunderbird app, it can connect with Google-Hangouts IM (instant-messaging) network (aka: web-service), or use your own choice of other app.Though its not a fully working solution, hopefully other users can collaborate & improve & find a complete solution. But user "JBis" has shown at-least some partial way to copy specific files, settings, etc from older macOS to Mojave/Catalina.Please, if you're going to install it, do it from the theme's download page and not from this repo.Google-Hangouts (aka: GH, aka: classic Hangouts, previously aka: Google-Talk, aka: GT) support was dropped from Mojave & Catalina, so "Messages" app cannot use that web-service (aka: network) anymore normally, and a complete solution is not-found yet. If Adium's installed, you can use the "Install" link from there to open it in Adium, or download it and double-click it which automatically moves it to the proper place. To download: visit this theme's download page on Adium's site. That's really the main reason I set out to create this theme. I couldn't find a theme I liked that really distinguished people in group chats. Steps were taken to remove flexbox as a dependency (Adium's WebKit engine doesn't support it) and some minor quality-of-life tweaks as they fit my fancy (I felt that consecutive messages needed a little more spacing).įor group chats, I replaced incoming messages icons with a unqiue (to the person talking), persistent Identicon. This is a theme based off of the Google Hangouts, using Chris Coyier's blog post from CSS-Tricks as a starting point. Unofficial clone of the Google Hangouts theme for Adium.
