oh, how I miss the days when everyone was on IRC. Unrelated question, but what is IRC used for nowadays, most often?

- galaktor 11y agoSimilar to mailing lists, IRC might be less mainstream but is still heavily used in niches, i.e. for development and support of open source projects. The simplicity of the protocol makes it easy to use for automation (bots), i.e. CI servers or similar. I've also seen networks dedicated to file sharing.
- gchokov 11y agoInteresting, would never think of CI use! Thanks for the reply!
