sqlite installs by default (unless something went wrong), but it's only required to persist between restarts (or leaving and reopening a channel). But just having it running will keep history in memory (up to a limit), so not strictly required to have it work between devices.
- ddevault 6y agoHey, sorry for the tangent, but while I have you here - would you ever consider adding a hosted option for The Longue? I might be interested in collaborating on that on behalf of sourcehut.
- xPaw 6y agoI have no interest in that.
- ddevault 6y agoPity. I think the Lounge has a great and easy to use interface for new IRC users, and a hosted option would be the cherry on top for making it easy to get into IRC.
- xPaw 6y agoWell nothing stops you from doing that yourself.
- ddevault 6y agoYeah, I've looked into it a few times. Have to manage priorities. Would've been helpful to have some cooperation with upstream if you guys were into it.
- orliesaurus 6y agoIrccloud does that already, no im not affiliated, I'm a happy thelounge user
- myself248 6y agoI learned of the Lounge when I was looking at the hosting panel of some random rent-an-instance service and it was in there alongside Wordpress and Nextcloud and stuff, and I said "what's this Lounge thing I've never heard of?" I ended up hosting it on a raspi in my basement, but there are definitely services out there who will host it for you. I have no idea who that was now, though!
