A few years ago I would've been all over having a dedicated Weechat IRC client, it looks very tempting. https://www.clockworkpi.com/product-page/uconsole-kit-r

- felideon 4y agoSame. Haven't used WeeChat in a while, but I used to get a lot of value from using it with Bitlbee via a cheap VPS.
- SkittlesNTwix 4y agoI've been out of the IRC loop for a while. Is there still a lot of value using IRC in general?
- serf 4y ago>Is there still a lot of value using IRC in general? weird question. it's a chat interface. there are people to chat with on IRC. Is that a valuable thing to you? Who knows. If the question is "Are there still people that use IRC?", then "Yes.". I know it's probably a 'mover-and-shaker' HN thing, but not everything needs to be rephrased to compare against value/time.
- felideon 4y ago> there are people to chat with on IRC. > If the question is "Are there still people that use IRC?", then "Yes.". That's a reasonable interpretation of the question. Even so, a lot of IRC communities have moved to Discord and such to lower the barrier to entry in participation. The underlying question is more likely "Are the people I would chat with still using IRC?" which can only be answered if you know who the people you want to chat with are.
