The only problem about it for me, is that having search and offline messages is not possible by default. I'm using IRC for the #redis community channel, and joining a discussion after my laptop has been in my bag for a couple of hours is not really feasible.
- giancarlostoro 10y agoTo my understanding you can setup Quassel as a bouncer on a server, so when you reconnect it will update all you missed, you just need a cheap VPS or another desktop to connect through elsewhere. Some channels also have searchable logs via bots as well. Ironically BotBot.ME which is powered by redis doesn't have a bot at #redis but oh well...
- wcummings 10y agoThat's not out-of-the-box
- fcanela 10y agoThere are other out-the-box alternatives. IRCCloud was mentioned in comments.

- rurounijones 10y agoIt is on linux. Ubuntu has the combined client and the separate client / server ones ready to go.
- eatonphil 10y agoPersonally, I have a tiny VPS running weechat, tmux, and mosh that let's me keep history and stay connected 24/7.
- kichuku 10y agocan you please elaborate more? I am looking to setup something similar. I have minimal linux knowledge and I have done a basic setup of weechat+screen.
- eatonphil 10y agoSure, here's how it works with tmux: 1. Install weechat, tmux, mosh 2. Make sure firewall allows mosh 3. Start a named tmux session (tmux new -s weechat) 4. Start weechat 5. Detach session (Ctrl-a d) 6. Connect using mosh and attach the session (mosh myvps 'tmux a -t weechat')
