Weechat VS visidata

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.)

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].

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.

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.

That's nothing to do with weechat? https://weechat.org/

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

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.

Visidata - https://visidata.org

You can try Visidata

VisiData is an awesome terminal spreadsheet tool. edbrowse for internet browsing.

Have you ever tried out visidata? It's not vim, but it's a terminal app with vim-like keybindings for visualizing tabular data (and it can convert from other types like json). Not quite a neovim buffer, but you could always open visidata in a new terminal buffer.

If you are a command-line user, try visidata[0]
