    💬 ‎ Modern, responsive, cross-platform, self-hosted web IRC client

  • I am pretty sure nobody except nerds knows what IRC is right now. It's long since been supplanted by user-friendlier group chat services.

    I agree with this. Like I mentioned this is slowly changing with web front-ends to IRC like TheLounge. NGIRCD [1] + TheLounge [2] take all of about 10 minutes to set up and then maybe another 10 minutes to tie that into and configure IRC services such as Anope. I would not be surprised if this has already been automated with Docker or Ansible. Discord and Slack will probably be popular until they reach critical mass and feel confident enough to start doing hostile things to their user base or until someone with a large ego purchases them.
