Connect with the community through various platforms. We utilize a bot to synchronize chats across all services, ensuring a seamless conversation regardless of your preferred client.
For an enhanced and user-friendly experience, we recommend joining our chat on one of these modern platforms. They offer persistent message history, file and image sharing, emoji reactions, and cross-device syncing. Thanks to our sync bot, conversations are bridged across all services, allowing you to choose the platform you're most comfortable with and still be part of the same discussion.
If you're considering IRC, we encourage you to look at Matrix as a modern alternative. Matrix embodies the decentralized spirit of IRC while offering significant upgrades such as persistent message history, built-in end-to-end encryption, and support for modern features like file sharing and video calls.
When connecting via IRC, you may find that messages from other platforms are relayed by a single sync bot, which can be visually disruptive. Some IRC clients can be configured with scripts to parse these relayed messages and display the original user's nickname, creating a more natural chat experience.
- WeeChat The parse_relayed_msg.pl script can pull usernames out of the message text from the relay bots and spoof them in nicklist (for auto complete) and the chat window.
