    Nooooooo. I can’t remember my ICQ, maybe I still have it somewhere, but this is still sad.

    At least IRC is still going.

    Edit:

    In its heyday, ICQ boasted over 100 million users on its platform, which was a remarkable achievement at the time. In 2010, ICQ was purchased by Mail.ru (now VK), who has since owned the products as it declined in use.

    Today, ICQ announced that they are shutting down on June 26th, recommending that users switch to VK Messenger and Workspace.

    So apparently Russian business killed it.
