Same here, although it's still not a patch on IRC. The problem with IRC has always been that it's usually blocked everywhere and that there is really only one top-class client (mIRC).
It's such a shame that for chat you have the choice between something which turns your laptop into a helicoper but works everywhere or something super fast and extendable (and free!) which is blocked by every firewall everywhere.
- lawfulcactus 7y agoI use a weechat relay over websockets (via nginx). It's a pretty convenient solution to the whole "my corporate firewall thinks I'm part of a botnet" issue (in addition to giving you channel history persistence).
- seisvelas 7y ago> mIRC Ha! Never thought I'd hear mIRC described as a top-class client. Unix has irssi, and I'd opine that even Xchat is better than mIRC. I hadn't though of mIRC in so long. It makes me think back to the days of planning imageboard raids on IRC. They even had a special version of mIRC for imageboard raids called m/i/rc.
