Show HN: An IRC Bouncer with no account required
- rasengan 7y agoSS: It is complicated to setup an IRC bouncer. This project aims to make IRC a lot simpler. This is v0.1 and already works. Rather than configuring a config file and all sorts of options, all you have to do is set your IRC password field in your client to: YourPasswordHere/Server.Destination.Com:Optional-Port/Optional-ClientBuffer Example: AFJifjoi/irc.dal.net:+6697/desktop Would love to hear the problems (and other feedback) with this! I'm going to continue to work on this until it's "finished" based on feedback. I tried this with Kiwi IRC and Textual, and it's fully compatible. Thank you!
- eloahx 7y agoyou're really committed lol. but whys it better than znc though? i just use stuff that works
- rasengan 7y agoZnc is great. It’s just a little complicated and I felt since public irc relays were already just that - public - that there should be easy always on BNCs as a public service as well. This is the path to this destination. :)
- eloahx 7y agothe password thing that just creates the account and connects them is how it should be IMO this is cool i may contribute to the code. super busy though. I love IRC, and we have many challenges to face but this is the right direction saw your last posts on your acc. keep up the good work. how can we all help tho?>
- rasengan 7y agoI agree! Try it out, make complaints, make suggestions, etc! Also feel free to make PRs!
