Using IRC in 2023
I really didn’t think that it will ever be a necessary to use IRC in modern world. First of all, there are better alternatives like Discord and Matrix. Secondly, IRC is a technology from 1988. For a bit of context, in 1988 Soviet Union was still a thing, and Guns and Roses just started making good music. Privileged Gen-Z rhetoric aside, it’s actually not all that bad. Yes, if you are old school you can still use IRC in the terminal, and constantly remind everyone how old days were much better than now, but that’s not very productive....
