Just like Bitcoin is dead I guess :)
IRC lives on, I frequent many IRC channels, most of them on Libera.chat nowadays. Plenty of interesting people to talk about.
- sph 4y agoAre general purpose channels still a thing? I used to meet a lot of people (and maybe even date someone) in #<country> or #<city> channels that have gone the way of the dodo from what I can tell.
- capableweb 4y agoSome I guess, but I find it hard to "get into" them (not access, but to become a long-time stick-arounder). Much prefer to find niche channels and talk about the niche and eventually stick around because they're just nice people. Then the niche becomes a plus while in reality, I'm still there just because of the people.
- mrweasel 4y agoYeah, me a few friends have an IRC channel for the same reason the parent post have a Discord server. Except I don't have to manage anything.

- zzo38computer 4y agoI also use Libera.chat. But, is there a specific channel for discussion of random ideas that you do not otherwise know what channels will be appropriate? Although, for some stuff, NNTP might be better.
