What in the world is this?

runningman.network is an open-source, hosted OSCAR server that lets you communicate with friends using ancient AIM clients. It's meant to revive and repurpose old software that was decomissioned by AOL and use it in the modern era. We also have a goal to expand the network and integrate it into contemporary systems like Slack and Discord.
