NAT's are the real pain for this sorta stuff and why people use stuff like skype, slack, discord, etc. When the majority of folks have IPv6 connectivity a lot of things should become much easier (at least for home users and people not behind a frustrating firewall they don't control)
I'm surprised maintaining a small IRC server was that much of a time sink. User problems is understandably another story.
