While I'm with you, I can't really do that given the company I work for uses Slack. If there was a self-hosted service that could translate Slack to IRC, I'd switch over in an instant lol

Matrix has an functionality that allows you to use bridges. A client logs in as you and relays it from and to matrix. The people there think their talking to you on slack/irc/icq/..., but they are talking to an bridge that relays the messages to you.

That was native functionality not too long ago :'( Very sad they dropped it. But yes there are in fact a few self hosted slack to IRC bridges on GitHub. I looked into it a while ago but ended up using matrix instead. I don't remember the choices but there were even multiple. Ps obligatory xkcd: https://xkcd.com/1782/ https://xkcd.com/1782/

Slack have/had an IRC gateway but they blocked it because you see the original message and not edited messages. Also you will see messages that people delete.
