Psi, alternative Linux à Quiet Internet Pager (QIP)
Mis à jour le
Notre avis
Psi can replace Quiet Internet Pager for users who only need XMPP/ICQ‑style chat, file transfer, and emoticons. It supports the core ICQ protocol via plugins, handles group chats, logs history, and offers theming. It is best suited for Linux users who are comfortable installing a third‑party client and want a modern, open‑source solution. Windows‑only QIP users who rely on proprietary features or a specific UI may need to adjust expectations.

Ouvrir vos fichiers Quiet Internet Pager (QIP)
QIP stores contacts and chat logs in proprietary .qip files. Psi cannot directly open these files; users must export contacts to a common format (e.g., CSV) from QIP, then import into Psi’s address book. Chat logs can be exported as plain text from QIP and read in Psi, but there is no automated migration tool.

Can I use Psi on Windows?
Psi is primarily a Linux client; there is a Windows binary available, but the focus here is on Linux replacement.
Is there a way to keep my QIP chat history in Psi?
You can export QIP logs as plain text and open them in Psi, but Psi does not import QIP’s proprietary log format automatically.
