TFW you will never go on IRC for the first time in your life, finding a comfy group of people to be with for half of your childhood, getting to know them all by heart, and then losing them all when they slowly stop using IRC and then finally you are the only one left.

TFW:(

I know that feel all too well, anon. Shit sucks.

I've come across a few open source projects that use slack instead of an IRC now. It works well functionally (multiple channels, easily upload multimedia/code samples, logs) but it can't beat the comfiness of IRC

I personally hate the monospace font while reading IRC. I think certain parts of text should be formatted much more differently, for example time in general should be smaller and less visible, and channel events should also be almost invisible.
Pic related, highlighted is all I want have in my face in a IRC. Everything else should be smaller and blend in with the background color.
>just customize it
Jesus Christ that's a mess to do for all of those things I want from a chatroom, and certain elements I want to be split change colors from a single value.

So what's your reason? Because everything new is bad? Or because you just don't have any friends online?

Are there any IRC servers that don't leak your IP?

>>59656116
the client is a giant piece of featureless shit

>>59656457
Has more features than any IRC client I've ever used. Keeps searchable chat history. Voice chat. Group chat. :^)
>>
>>59656474
you can't even collapse/resize/minimize the server column

you can't use it on anything less than a widescreen

>you can't resize the window to be on the side of your monitor while you browse the internet or play games

you know, the way that literal billions of people have used chat clients in the past? remember the layout of AIM? AIM from 2005 is literally better than Discord in 2017 when it comes to visual design.
