Like everywhere i said this opinion it has’nt went well was my experience because i used the wrong server or something ? I felt like it was seveely underpolished and felt like i was in a ghost town like i get it there are uses like joining a foss project community but there is no internet randos to chat and the clunkiness threw me out immedietly . Anyway thoughts and opinions ? Also if anyone has tried IRC would you reccomend ? And do give a review .
i kinda hate it. rough is an understatement
Preach brother . On that note have you tried IRC and would you rec ?
haha, ive been usin irc for prolly 35 years, but not much lately. discord kinda embraced, and extinguished a ton of irc groups.
i would always highly recommend irc. my first game bots/instant messenger relays were all irc.
that said, my kids needs for multimedia bells and whistles won out in the end.
Any good server for a noob to join ? i would like to be able to give the least bit of info as i have a habit of bolting from places
An IRC server runs many, many different channels, you can create a new channel by simply joining an empty channel.
I would recommnd googling a subject you are interested in and adding IRC to the search and see where that takes you.
The best IRC channels I have been in was smaller channels for smaller communities.
I remember when our computer class in trade school set up our own IRC channel back in 2006-2009, it was brilliantly fun.
I’d suggest connecting to one of the larger networks, back when I was active on IRC, I first started with QuakeNet, then slowly started getting on other networks like Freenode and Chat4All. The networks have very limited impact on what kind of channels they serve.
