What if you made a version of irc that works like discord? >text

>>61299759
Yes, let's make one more competing projects to once and for all replace the 100+ existing ones

>>61299759
What you're asking for is similar to Matrix.

We have a web gateway at https://totallysafe.website and semi-regular threads on this board, if you want to try that out.

no basically it is just a special irc client that treats urls different

>This would basically kill discord.
Are you unable to comprehend the concept of convenience? Do you think that removing features a majority of people use will draw them to you? You barely put any thought into this. Go back and try again.

>>61299759
Just use https://github.com/khyperia/weechat-discord or https://github.com/42wim/matterbridge and stop trying to reinvent the wheel.

>>if you want to send a picture of fancy emoji or gif or other content you send a url and if there's a picture or video at that url and you are in the web client it will automatically put it in there for you
>>if you are in the text client you just see the url in pliantext

The point of discord is that it not only replaces irc, but also teamspeak/skype.
This is the reason why a lot of people switch, not chat-channels.

yeah, discord aims to replace voice and text chat apps

>>61299759
I think discord will die pretty soon unless they start serving ads
someone's got to pay the botnet bill

>This would basically kill discord.
It wouldn't even touch Discord, Discord already has too much people on it and nobody would use "literally who's?" software from 4cucks.
Also Discord is not just a text chat, it's VOIP and will have video chat and screen sharing.

>>61299759
It already exists you newfag

So exactly how IRC works now? Yet I still don't see it killing Discord.

There are plenty of IRC clients that parse image URLs, discord didn't invent that you know.
