An emotional moment for 90’s kids. A final goodbye to an old friend.
It all began with Yahoo! Isn’t it? chitchatting for kids in 90’s meant Yahoo Messenger.
The cute little emoticons were so common back then. It was totally an exceptional experience to hear the buzzing sound.
Sharing school time gossips with your friends on the messenger, it was our first hangout station on the World Wide Web.
Those old times are now long gone and with Yahoo putting an end to its messenger is an early reminder.
Following 20 outstanding years (well, the vast majority of them), the end is close for Yahoo Messenger. Or maybe, the end is here! Minutes before it rides into the dusk, it's a great opportunity to bid a speedy farewell to an old buddy from our past.
The users are being given a 6 months duration to back-up their chat history.
Those who still try to use Yahoo Messenger will be redirected to Squirrel, the new group messaging app.
While kids from Noughties might not be affected very much by this decision of ending Yahoo messenger, but the demise brings back those old forgotten memories of the 90’s generation.
Yahoo shut down its older version on August 5 in 2016. On December 2016 the new was launched which is being shut down today.
People willing to download their chat history will have to open the downloader request site, sign into it and pick a verification method.
Proceed by entering the account key. Click download and then enter your email address where you wish to send your chat history.
That’s it! You are all set, you can now view your chat history through your email account.
The company also recommends users to delete the Yahoo Messenger app after downloading the chat history.
Conclusively, Yahoo Messenger ends for a good reason.
As of now, the users are redirected to Squirrel group chat app so this could be taken as a hint from yahoo of coming back again with a more powerful and more innovative messenger in order to give a tough competition to others.
