What are some Metro-style slick-looking IRC clients? pic unrelated

why

>IRC
please go fuck yourself while watching star wars you fucking geek.

>>57340608
I'd guess a normal irc client (e.g. Hexchat) but themed properly.

>>57340662
Can't it be simply preference?

>>57340662
Gotta keep up with my fellow tulpamancers, anon :^)

Only worthwhile irc clients are weechat and irssi.

What's with the IRC hate?

>>57340728
it's an ancient relic that needs to die, there are a million better protocols but you nerds still cling to this one for some reason

>>57340721
CLI clients are fucking based, but in this case the opposite of what OP wants

>>57340738
So are so many other protocols. Why do people use them? Some people just like things anon, get the fuck out.

>>57340759
You like to get cucked too?

>>57340738
Please state the flaws in IRC

>>57340738
What protocols? I know of one alternative, XMPP. IRC is simpler though.

Okay.
Such as ?

>>57340818
it's ANCIENT

>>57341088
so is the wheel

>>57341123
the key difference being that the wheel is good

>>57341129
so what's wrong with IRC?

>>57341088
Not a flaw. Wheels are ancient too.

>Metro-style

Depends on what client you use. If you're actually using a good client, you'll be able to have these features. Get something like WeeChat.
This isn't an issue with the protocol itself.
>no formatted text
This is just false. IRC supports text formatting.

>>57343963
>no offline messages
why would you ever need this from an IRC client?
that just forces a persistent identity on you, the nick system is better.

>>57344598
>no history
people who log deserve swift death. there are clients that let you do that though.

>>57343963

You can if you run irssi or weechat in tmux on a dedicated server. Even a $30 Raspberry Pi will do.
>no history
See my point above
>no formatted text
Use a terminal that supports bold, italic, and underline.

>>57340738
Everything else is centralized proprietary shit.

>hey anons, use this non-anonymous protocol
no thanks

>>57346203
>he doesn't know that anonymous channels exist

>>57340662

What do you mean?

>>57340714
Wow I forgot about that, how is your tulpa coming along?

>>57346242
