Time to Ditch Digsby
I used to love Digsby. Ugly as it is, it’s the closest thing one can get to having the awesome Adium on Windows. However, in light of these new craptastic features that’s been added to the latest version, I have decided not to use Digsby again.
UPDATE 8/16: O HAI, Digsby. You’ve been /.’ed. Geeks are not happy. Prepare to meet thy doom.

We published a post( http://blog.digsby.com/archives/68) explaining the feature when we introduced it but we realize that as we’ve grown, new users were not aware of it.
We’ve updated Digsby to make this option more prominent when it runs.
Check out our blog post where we in explain in detail the revenue models we are testing and ask for your feedback – http://blog.digsby.com/archives/693
We are sorry to lost you but if you feel we are worthy, we hope you can give Digsby a second look in the future.

Erick:
my problem is with the way you handled this travesty. You were not upfront about these “new” features until Lifehacker called you out. Very uncool. I will not consider Digsby again. I hope software companies learn from your mistake.
I appreciate your post, nonetheless. Good luck.
