You know what doesn’t require full face scan? #irc

I love IRC, just need some user friendly client recommendations if we want wider adoption by less tech savvy folks. Though I get the impression there are a good few IRC users who prefer how that filters out the “normies”

I hate to sound gatekeepy, but a flood of new users into an IRC network would be pretty unpleasant for the existing users. There isn’t generally any form of support, so that burden falls to the other users.

The main problem with IRC is that it isn’t asynchron, like I can write something now and a friends only comes only tomorrow to check up on me messages.
I mean yes there are/were bouncers when I last used irc but if I remember correctly that’s just not the same…
