Many years ago, IRC was hugely popular. It was the first real time chat. In fact, I think the term "real time chat" didn't even exist before IRC.

Good system for group chat, but it doesn't seem to have evolved while other chat protocols and services have. TT |

I use IRC every now and again. I tend to use pidgin with OTR for most of my chatting though.

I use pidgin as well, but can I connect to IRC with pidgin? I never tried. |

Pidgin looks interesting. Used to use Trillian until MS changed skypekit preventing the client from working with Skype.

I started using it back in 2001 when I just got internet. I spent years on there. Eventually the net of my country started dying. Nowadays no one in my country uses it anymore so its not worth it for me.

What country is that? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_Relay_Chat was a good read. |

I used it 1998-2001.
Actually, IRC was one of the things that made me get a 56k modem ;-)
Today: no need.

I hate using IRC because botnets started using it to communicate and I'm always paranoid I'll be infected if I have to use an apparently legit version.

 I think you need to educate yourself more. |

Pretty sure the last time I used IRC was ~20 years ago.
