    Me in 2002: “Wow this IRC thing is pretty sweet, I bet people in 2026 will still be using it and it will be even better.”

    People in 2026: “I just cannot live without six different closed source, bloated, expensive, corporate versions of IRC which are somehow worse in every imaginable way than IRC was in 2002.”

      I’ve been wondering if IRC still exists. I used to use it way back in the day, is it still. Bathing I can get back into?

        I still use it, and run my own server. Easy to run, and easy to use.
