ICQ will stop working on June 26. It’s encouraging users to migrate to a messaging app from Russia-based VK, its parent company.
I stopped using ICQ in the very early 00s. I didn’t know anything of it still remained.

ICQ was still around? I thought it died ages ago!
It had. This thing only has branding in common. A different protocol, a different set of features (no contact directory), and while they had the old database of everything, they deemed a good idea to not preserve it, so old UINs don’t exist.
That’s a shame, I still remember mine. Weird how you can remember 7 random digits from 30 years ago…
My 8 digit UIN has been used as a password for a lot of things
Meanwhile I’ve no idea what’s my partners phone number
Hell I still remember my Nintendo Power membership number.
I couldnt remember mine if you put a gun to my head, and it was only 5 digits
I have some of mine somewhere with partial message history (in MS Access databases). But I don’t remember them.
