I recently installed an IRC server on my pi to satisfy my 15-years-old me wishes to operate an IRC server. None of my geeky friends tried it out, I ended up writing some bots to have a chat with :(. Seriously, configuring and securing correctly an IRC server take more time that I would like to admit. And it's a bit ugly on the screen and people don't want to learn '/' commands and authentication when skype/msn allow them to do funny things in a much easier way. I should have installed a jabber server.
