Prefixing a date/timestamp unless the client has asked for IRCv3 timestamps is reasonable.

- Sanddancer 11y agoYep. This is how slack does it, least for their xmpp gateway. I imagine that their irc gateway is similar.
- scrollaway 11y agoAnd now, you just broke essentially all clients that already support channel logs by duplicating anything they already had. This is a problem bouncers are already solving best they can, and it still sucks. It's not good enough to compete with slack.
- caf 11y agoChannel logs is a marginal, client issue, not a protocol issue. Does anyone do client-side logging on any of these other services that do server-side message history? I didn't say anything about competing with slack.
