This was posted on reddit/r/baduk a couple of days ago, just wanted to share it here. I've been playing a few games with no problems after following the guide.
This was convoluted but actually worked for me, thanks.
So long as it keeps working, it seems like a minor threat to other servers. Owning a Mac is one of the reasons I feel pretty much locked into KGS, for example.

Just a heads up here that the Pandanet client works perfectly on Mac....... and looks pretty too!

Uhm … maybe I should mention that CGoban also runs well on my Mac? <just kidding>
Pandanet = IGS, Tygem is another Go server.

Yes i know. My reply was to the previous post who felt that their OS was locking them into KGS. I was offering an alternative!

Oh, sorry, I missed that.
Perhaps I should mention OGS now because that runs in every decent (= modern) browser

OGS deserves to be much more popular than it is. Maybe we like non-browser clients over browsers?

OGS is slow to get games, for me. I do like IGS and that's primarily where I play when away from home- nice android client. I like Tygem for it's play style and it's quick to get games. I still play on KGS, too. It's nice to have options!

Personally, yes. I prefer clients over the in-browser.
