The heckā€™s an IRC?

Basically decentralized chat rooms.

Itā€™s pretty old actually, like '80s old. :stuck_out_tongue:

Hmmm, could you link it? Sounds cool.

The original post has it linkedā€¦

I think he meant the clientā€¦

Yeah @jcbug, as itā€™s decentralized, youā€™ll have to find the right network to connect to where you want to chat. That also means that there are lots of IRC clients out there. Iā€™d suggest either XChat or HexChat. For me, personally, HexChatā€™s pretty good IMO. :stuck_out_tongue:

Welp, from the looks of screenshots, it sort of looks like a more complicated discord??? :thinking:

or not lol

i suggest pidgin

Yeah, basically. Discord is just IRC for non-tech enthusiasts, although Iā€™m not exactly sure if Discord is built off of IRC. :stuck_out_tongue:


the irc channel is also linked to the escargot discord

and vice versa

mIRC, eh? :stuck_out_tongue:

That was my first choice, but then there was the nagging thing. So I went with open-source.

I think itā€™s a sign that I canā€™t technology when I get stuck at the first page of the installer.

then you can just join the discord

Oh hey thatā€™s smart.

OH GOD image

Well, Iā€™ll be on there with the name msnnostalgia.

Weā€™re currently having a Comic Chat session. So download that and weā€™ll see ya! :wink:
