This is an old ticket, but I agree with it. For similar reasons I
created a plugin which compacts the buddy list. It might be useful to
someone, so I'll post the link here:

pidgin buddy list takes up way too much space

Probably they mean Buddies->Show and uncheck the Buddy Details option.

This may be a stupid question, but I have the same question, but can't
find this Contacts menu you speak of ? All I see across the top is
Buddies / Accounts / Tools / Help, and none of those have a View
submenu. There's also no View option or tab under prefs or plugin
options.
Running pidgin 2.
Thanks for this bug report.
You can make the contact list more compact by unchecking "Contact information"
in the Contacts -> View menu.
I'm marking this bug as invalid for now; if you consider this is still a bug,
feel free to re-open it.
