I do remember that you could still message people on MSN when they were offline
and they'd see the messages pop-up whenever they logged on. I can't say I am
100% sure though because it was a very long time ago... perhaps it's just my
imperfect recall.

Facebook Messenger for my family. Skype I use for both work, and my weekly gaming group meets on it (as we game online, since we're spread all throughout the US). The work stuff is really just a small group of people (myself and two others) in a skype channel we created about 8 years ago.

Discord, for the most part, has replaced IRC for me. I'm in a lot of disparate groups/servers there.

Slack is for work. It's how the entire company communicates with each other, since everyone is spread out all over the world.

Aim and yahoo messengers were an additional feature for social media
sites. ;-) I think the rise and fall of XMPP had a lot to do with it,
we were all heading towards interoperability, while the masses were
going to google and facebook, then google said f-that, and it was over.
