Apparently at least one person is working, fairly successfully, on a server clone. I think it was this one, but I only know about it from one YouTube video I watched weeks ago.
I didn’t know Pidgin had dropped it, but yeah - the video I saw as well as the git page linked both reference the original client. Is Trillian still around? What about Adium?
You SHOULDN’T have gotten people off AIM. AIM was awesome!!!
We used it literally til the servers turned off.

Sadly Pidgin dropped oscar (aim protocol) support years ago because undeveloped and insecure. So either install a plugin or use the old clients.
On the up side, a complete understanding of the server protocol means new clients can be written.
