Tox Send messages, files, create groups and make Tox to Tox audio and video calls. Securely. Pidgin is a client that interfaces between many protocols. Tox is merely a protocol. Not the same. Guest • Jul 2017 • 22 agrees and 0 disagrees Disagree Agree Not the multiprotocol experience and selling point of Pidgin. Simply its own program.

Pidgen supports multiple accounts from multiple services, while this is a single service. So instead of allowing you to use all your existing accounts it requires you to use their account.
