IRC Is the Only Viable Chat Protocol
> But all of the modern services like Teams, Slack and Discord, have seamlessness between client devices as their first priority.
Can't speak for the others, but Teams is really hit-or-miss. Missed notifications, missed messages, out of order messages. Then it appears to be fixed for three months only to happen again. It mostly seems to happen on Android.
In general, you're right, multi-device appeared to have been solved for IM - at least MSN messenger and Skype had it - right around the time when the smart phone came around, but then we had the same problem again in the mobile world, because somehow those messengers couldn't successfully move to phones: WhatsApp and the likes was bound to one device again. They added web access later, but that was more of a hack than true multi-device support.
The big problem the phone messaging apps solved was that their protocols didn't require a persistent connection. Theoretically, all the other protocols, MSN, ICQ, Skype, IRC could have been extended to support this too, but it's always faster to just build something new and be first to market.
If you want to use IRC today and have that modern multi-device experience, IMO the most decent solution is Quassel[1] (and Quasseldroid for Android). It's like a bouncer, but uses a custom protocol between the bouncer (quassel-core) and the GUI (quassel-client), so that it can perfectly sync state across all devices, and with flaky connections on mobile. It obviously required you to run the core on some server so it's accessible from everywhere, so nothing for "normies" as TFA calls them, but to me it's what makes IRC usable in the modern world. I wouldn't want to use irssi in a screen via ssh in termux on my phone.
The next best thing, if you're a Web 2.0 aficionado is probably The Lounge[2].

Client that simultaneously supports both PC and Android?
You can use a bouncer to do this. ZNC is the most popular. Quasse is a different take on the bouncer, where you have a special client that logs into your Quassel server, and the server logs into IRC. Has certain advantages, like more seamless scrollback and so forth. A variant take on this is irccloud, which is probably the "best" if you just want something turnkey that works with minimal fuss. It has good push notifications, a good web client, and excellent mobile clients

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.

Saturday APPreciation (Feb 05 2022) - Your weekly app recommendation/request thread!
Personally, I use a self-hosted "Core" (server) of Quassel I compiled from source and host remotely. Attach to the Core "locally" on a ZeroTier LAN network through a persistent physically independent WireGuard/reverse proxy/edge node microserver using various open source apps (preferably compiled from source). On Android I use QuasselDroid and of course compiled from source .

Thoughts on the state of the freenode IRC network - Edward Kmett
I've been a massive user of IRC since the mid 90s... have written lots of bots, scripts etc plus set up plenty of stuff to deal with being able to disconnect your client without missing out on anything (currently use https://quassel-irc.org/ with the daemon on a VPS). I was even l33t enough to "read bitchx.doc" back in the day...

Convos solves IRC's persistence problem
Seems really similar to Quassel (https://github.com/quassel/quassel/), though I don't believe that has a webclient...

Git Branches: Intuition and Reality
I agree that git is almost asking you to juggle commits.
My preference is to use temporary branches and cherry-picking instead of stashing; I mostly use a gui* to work with git so it is easy to select the two or three commits to cherry-picking or see visually if an interactive rebase would work.

Git Merge – The Definitive Guide
I use Git Extensions myself as I find the git interface very straight forward, however they still have this fucking insane and frustrating issue: In the mergetool "Theirs" and "Mine" are swapped

IT Pro Tuesday #251 - Git UI, Fiber Training, Infosec News & More
Git Extensions is a more-intuitive way to manage your Git repositories in Windows. Its standalone interface serves as an effective, CLI-free means to control Git. Preferred by namtab00, because "SourceTree hides and shortcuts too much git functionality."

How do you work on the same project when you're in between two PC's in a day?
If you're on Windows, I'd start with installing official Git. It comes with a Git Bash CLI and what not. There are also third party apps like GitExtensions and TortoiseGit if you want more UI/shell integration.

Coolest projects, GO!
https://github.com/gitextensions/gitextensions/releases/tag/v2.51.05 - nice little ui for working with git. unfortunately, v2.51.05 is the last version that I can confirm works under mono (it was the last 2.x version and they completely rewrote the code from scratch in the 3.x series. My understanding was that it lost Linux compatibility at that point).
