Comment on What kind of messaging apps do you use?
IRC is still alive?
IRC will never die! I mean, it probably will eventually. It’s still fairly popular with Linux users, and even stil preinstalled on some distros
Are there some websites or lists of interesting channels?
Depends on what you’re into. It’s kinda like discord, in that it has a lot of servers for specific communities/apps/games, etc.
I used it mostly for pirating cause it was always blazing fast compared to torrenting.
Libera.chat, IRCNet, Undernet, Rizon, EFNet are the biggest networks I can think of off my head. Each has like 5000 to 20000 channels!
