GuestWhy does IRC exist in current year? I see that every general thread has its own IRC chatroom, but I don’t understand why. I even saw some scrotebrain asking if certain Di*cord channel (TeamSpeak for zoomers) has its own IRC chat.
1. While you can join many IRC chatrooms without registration, they are still not anonymous. Thus, IRC is inferior to imageboards in terms of careless shitposting.
2. IRC doesn’t support rich text, newlines, images and encryption. Thus, it is inferior to XMPP.
3. If you just joined a chatroom, you can’t see older messages. IRC encourages you to ask the same questions over and over again. Thus, IRC is inferior to phpBB forums in terms of discussing serious questions. (Or any other forums with archives.)
The only use for IRC today is… I don’t know. Book piracy? But we already have Libgen for that. So the only use for IRC today is temporary chatrooms for streaming services. I remember one pony streaming website having IRC channel for viewers to discuss the stream.
When will IRC die at last? Imageboards are so much better. -

Guest> problem with IRC
It is not anonymous (you WILL bear a nickname and you WILL hold responsibility for what you say).
No encryption
No newlines.
No text formatting.
No images, archives and other files.
You can’t see older messages that were posted before you joined.-

GuestI am always laughing at people thinking everyone is a bot. Same in games like world of tanks. From all the 10k games I played, about 4k has me reported as a bot for sure. People don’t get that humans are different. If you did send me a link I would too click it instantly. Like, you send the link and less than 10 seconds I would click it.
Reactions like "nice try, shill" or something alike "why should I click such a link xD?" are completely normal to me.
Sometimes I think posts like that in the picture are just bait-posts. -

Gay and dumb, but clients exist that display images. Hosting a file somewhere is not an issue.

Certain servers will replay messages that happened shortly before you came, but most don’t because it’s a shit feature.

Do you seriously think IRC is the only place that exists to get help for kde, linux, python, neovim or any of the other shit listed there?
It’s simply an alternative way to have discussion with the community and it’s mostly community members helping each-other.
The way you’re making it seem is the only possible way to get "tech support" is to use IRC. -

Thankfully, no. There are many tech support forums, and all forums by default provide archives. So I can google my problem and find it was solved back in 2005.
What I am trying to say is that IRC is inferior to forums as tool for providing tech-support. Developerd set up their own IRC chatrooms because it’s a tradition nobody questions.Mods and janitors can you freaking absolute mong therefore imgboards are not anonymous
if you get a permaban all your posts are deleted so regular users can see the deleted posts are yours + it’s all archived on rbt, you have to go back
Yeah, and? "Anonymous" in "anonymous image board" means that you are anonymous "against" other visitors, not mods and jannies. You have no name and I have no name. You, without access to mod panel, can’t see my posts on other threads or boards. You can’t even highlight all my posts ITT because LULZ has no IDs.
Actually, there are Tor-only imageboards. On these you are truly anonymous. -

It literally has nothing to do with IRC. If people want to use it for help with things, there is nothing wrong with that.
Saying the protocol is bad because people use it for something you don’t like is scrotebrained.
What if people want their scrotebrained questions forgotten forever? Do you think they should post it on some obscure IRC, or stack overflow? -

Guest> What if people want their scrotebrained questions forgotten forever?
In a perfect world, where IRC isn’t used in 2020, thede people would:
A. Go to an anonymous imageboard and post their scrotebrained questions in /fglt/.
B. Create new account on Stackoverflow and post their scrotebrained question there.
C. Not ask scrotebrained questions at all. Maybe they would use google to find the answers.
But sadly, IRC is still used in 2020. -

Because monkey developers don’t think. They just see that their fellow monkeys use IRC and decide to set up their own channels. If they would think for just five minutes, they would come to conlusion that IRC is legacy garbage and that forums/boards are much better.

>Why do you use Discord in the first place?
Collaborating on something with people that refuse to abandon it. As well as marketing to the people that would never go on IRC/Matrix.Also discord isn’t a teamspeak alternative, even though it was advertised that way. Discord is 95% a text chat application. Maybe 5% of people use it for voice at one time, at most.
But it does have some redeeming factors despite being botnet, the screenshare works pretty well for example.

Woah. Any other epic userbase statistic you can use? FOSS/Linux seem to be the only topics you can actually talk to people about. People are coming back to IRC out of nostalgia, because it was good 20 years ago and find nothing but dead chatrooms full of always-on accounts that haven’t spoken in years.-

GuestYou scrotebrained scrote. I will repeat my points for the last time.
> IRC is inferior to forums for providing tech-support => people should use forums for tech-support.
> IRC is inferior to XMPP for instant messaging => people should use XMPP for instant messaging.
> IRC is inferior to Libgen for book piracy => people should use Libgen for book piracy.
> IRC is inferior to Discord for being a pedo => people should use Discord if they want to be pedoes.

GuestNope, you spent this entire time arguing that IRC was bad because it’s bad for tech support.
You’re the one twisting it because you made a scrotebrained argument.
If you shouldn’t use IRC because it’s bad for tech support, you shouldn’t use XMPP.
You’re so ultra-focused on tech support scrotebraination that your argument is basically if X doesn’t support Y use-case, you shouldn’t use it. Which is why according to you nobody should use forums either.
Forums aren’t good for livestreaming therefor they shouldn’t be used. Outdated shit tech.

Guestirc is garbage
you can’t even join most channels without first creating an account..
and to even create an account, you must use some valid email, not a throwaway like cockli.. and even if you manage to do that, you can’t use some sort of vpn or it won’t let access the server
so you have to use your real IP, and not only that, expose it to the entire server since irc doesn’t mask your IP.

IRC protocol with different REAL servers
Discord shitty 1 centralized server with rooms that have the name ”’server””
IRC lets you post immediately and without problems if not go to a different server.
Discord requires authentication will bait adn then demand you make a account.Make account on Discord account locked within seconds if you use TOR or VPN.

GuestIRC is very good for learning programming and leenox.
You get into your language chat, you start programming, as soon as you hit a roadblock you can immediately ask shit in the channel and get a response. Forums/githubs etc is slow as shit and you need to build a good documented case to get an answer if any. On IRC you just fire a dumb question and you will find a couple of helpful dudes chiming in. You keep that chat open all the day, casually browse what people are discussing and you will absorb tons of knowledge that slowly builds up
Easiest way to learn programming ever. You don’t need some dumb sicp book.
If you want to use IRC to chat with total randoms about literally nothing of value you are doing it wrong and it’s as shit as facebook-

Guest>Technical barrier to entry.
are you freaking stupid? download an IRC client and click the server and you’re ready to go
I was using IRC when I was 10 years old-

GuestYou overestimate zoomers. See:
>download an IRC client
What, you mean I can’t just chat from the webbrowser?
>click the server
What is a server? Why do I need to do that to chat? I can just use wazap or discord. -

GuestIs there even a secure chat program that offers a zoomer friendly experience/UI? I hate discord to no end but it’s all my friends use, and what’s the point on using a chat program if there is no one to talk to.
Given I can convince them to move, is there even a valid alternative? How is Riot/Element?-

GuestElement UI is really close to Discord in most aspects and even has most of the features (@mentions, media sharing, emoji reactions, bots, etc.). Perhaps wait a month or 3 for Spaces (roughly equivalent to Discord guilds/groups) are finished, then it’s a complete replacement and even better in many ways, excluding inferior voice chat.

GuestSorry, if I wasn’t clear enough, I meant to say that "spaces" are an upcoming Element feature. I’ve heard people complain that current alternative to Discord guilds (Element "communities") are too limited and barebones, so that should bring it closer.

GuestAh that explains it, sorry for getting it wrong. Searching Spaces gave me a telegram alternative and a discontinued Google product. Thanks for making it clearer, downloading it right now to check features and whatnot. End to End encryption is really attractive.

GuestElement is definitely a good idea, as matrix is open and federated, and element does e2e.
They have real servers, and a concept similar to servers in discord. I believe called "communities".
The "communities" experience isn’t quite ready yet, but is due in the first weeks of 2021. There’s UI for it visible in element already, which is a little silly.

GuestDiscord is all about trannies and gayness. IRC is all about downloading. IRC has gotten even better in 2020/21 because all the scrotes that would usually shit up channels with gay talk and games say JoIn oUR DiScORRd and the channels are just full of packlists and announces. Like the old prechannel days, but every channel is like that now. Beautiful, brilliant.

GuestOf course there is formatting you idiot trucking zoomers. IRC is and always will be THE way to communicate on the I ternet. Servers support SSL vhost and VPN so anonymity has been dealt with decades ago.
IRC has had utf-8 support for years…

Guest"Anonymous" in "anonymous imageboard" doesn’t mean hiding from government, glowscrotes, ISPs or mods. It is about having no name, so others posters can’t see which posts are mine. It is about having no responsibility for quality of my posts. It is about careless shitposting. I thought this was obvious. So sad that I have to explain shit like this.
(Or course, AIBs that exist in darknet allow you to hide from glowies, ISPs, governments etc.)
Most IRC chatrooms force you to wear a nickname, and so you are not anonymous. You have to take responsibility for what you say.-

Reee do you really think it will be flooded?
Write it in a picture so no bot scrapes it from LULZ.Or can IRC do private shit? How? When I opened IRC I can join all the servers no problem.
However I’m a IRC noob.

Guestit’s private in a way that you can’t find that channel name anywhere on the internet anymore and you can only join if I give you the channel name, it used to be a discussion hub for a certain mod but now it’s just friends hanging around
as best your intentions maybe I really have doubts about letting it be known on LULZ and potentially destroying my home channel-
