Well, turns out, I cant send messages because I’m a “very new account or very low reputation” :D I guess I’ll share here, mods can delete the comment if this sort of promotion is not allowed :)
The server address is irc.inthemansion.com port: 6697
Web chat can be found on the front page here https://inthemansion.com/
Join #lobby and say a greeting :)
That can be solved with a bouncer. The bouncer stays connected and loads chat history, when you do connect. :)
IRC exists and works great! :D
I’m on a self hosted network that is active almost around the clock, full of chill, wholesome and welcoming people. I can PM details for anyone who wants to come check us out (there is a webchat option, no need to set up a IRC client if you just want to have a look), don’t know if advertising is frowned upon here or not and I don’t want to spam or upset anyone.
They should make them flow downhill, that would save fuel
“Climate change has made the Panama Canal unusable, should we do anything about it?”
“Yes, lets build a new canal, with blackjack and hookers!”
Some bouncers need to have the chat history replay set to enabled, some clients need a plugin to replay the history. I use Soju+weechat and had to do a bit of configuring to get it to work, but now it does work fine. Also, some channels have a server side history replay enabled, for example, in our network the main channel replays automagically 15 last messages and you can do a command to replay the last 100 messages.
Mobile support has improved a lot lately. There is a couple of users on the network who only use mobile to chat. Personally I don’t use any, so I can’t say much about it.
