when you go to the user profile, you can see the following information or you have the option of filling it out in your own profile:
but i haven't seen these fields filled in for any user - this is probably because only some of us still know icq, msn, ...
how about replacing these old chat apps with the new social media apps?
i would definitely suggest: twitter/x, instagram, telegram and simplex

It has been discussed before, here's a more recent discussion: [proposal] Update Profile > Social Networks ICQ/AIM/MSN/YIM
And here's
What about something like this:
- The number of fields, platform names and user input remains the same. This is how existing information is preserved.
- In the Forum Profile Information page a dropdown menu is added next to the defaults to switch with some new ones (Discord, Telegram, etc). This also keeps the same number of contact fields.
- Updating the contact fields should also update the small logo under the user's avatar, displayed in posts.
I think the "Skype" field should probably be moved upwards to sit with the other fields, like this:
Then, I think those 5 field labels could be converted into dropdowns, like this:
That way, everyone's existing field values would remain intact, but people would be free to switch them out for more modern alternatives (and whenever those get out-of-date, adding new choices would be really simple).

And here's my suggestion on how to manage preserving old data/fields and adding new fields without cluttering the Profile page:
On-topic: Yep, the profile page/settings could use some attention. I've got some ideas about how to migrate those fixed-label messenger links to something more free-form, but I haven't thought about it deeply. I'll read through the topics logfiles posted, and see what folks have said/suggested in the past.
Now we're getting somewhere...What about something like this:
- The number of fields, platform names and user input remains the same. This is how existing information is preserved.
- In the Forum Profile Information page a dropdown menu is added next to the defaults to switch with some new ones (Discord, Telegram, etc). This also keeps the same number of contact fields.
