How Beeper Mini Works
ah didn't realize it had gone away. its successor appears to be [0]
now I'm reliving the chaos of the late-00s/early-10s instant messaging apocalypse when AOL sunsetted AIM. Clients like Trillian were absolutely necessary before AIM shut down. Everybuddy was a good linux-friendly client. When I still spent time on IRC, I really really liked Bitlbee [1] with ERC [2].
(I'm not saying that there's a connection there, but rather that all the chat protocols started getting used less around the same time for the same reason, which was smartphones becoming commonplace in late-00s.)

Is/are there any FOSS Discord Client for Android?
I use purple-discord (libpurple/Pidgin plugin) + BItlBee (IRC chat gateway, libpurple variant) + Quassel (distribued IRC client, like a bouncer) on a home server, and use Quasseldroid to connect on mobile. I would eventually like to simplify this setup.

The first beta of Slidge (XMPP bridges) is out
I used to have a similar setup to use IRC for everything using https://www.bitlbee.org. Fun times!

Screenshot: twittering-mode
Another approach to this is to use bitlbee's twitter support and your favorite Emacs IRC client to access that. This is especially nice if you are using bitlbee anyway.

Neonmodem: TUI for Lobsters, HN, etc.
WeeChat[0] with Bitlbee[1] supports a metric assload of services, albeit by pretending they're IRC (which does work - I spent years in weechat/irssi with bitlbee talking to various people on disparate services.)
Or if you're just after Telegram/WhatsApp, nchat[2] is ok (I can vouch for the Telegram half only.)

Wave of Spam Hits IRC
And UnrealIRCD still rocks. For a quick-and-dirty setup I've deploy ng-ircd but Unreal has always been my go-to for anything serious. If nothing else it can be useful as a backup or internal platform during the rare events that Slack or Discord are having an incident. The common complaint is a lack of channel back-log but it can be front-ended with TheLounge [1] or Convos [2]. I personally prefer to handle that with gnu screen or tmux and WeeChat [3].

Can you help me login or get my WeeChat back?
I’m afraid you’re in the wrong subreddit. This subreddit is dedicated to WeeChat the IRC client., not the proprietary messaging app built by Tencent.

DPReview.com is shutting down
First off, grab yourself an IRC client. On their connection info page Hackint has information for both WeeChat and Hexchat, but you could use any IRC client.

Discord has updated their privacy policy.
That's nothing to do with weechat? https://weechat.org/

IRC Chat?
Gajim is for XMPP. For IRC you need Hexchat or Weechat or something like that.

Tell HN: Linux Mint support IRC appears to me captured by juvenile moderators
I am not familiar with HexChat but you might consider using a different IRC client that allows you to silence anything/everything by default and only alert you on specific keywords you are interested in. If you like command line tools, consider trying out WeeChat IRC client [1] It is very customizable and there are many scripts for it.
