    Check out libera.chat, one of the most popular IRC networks today. Freenode suffered a hostile takeover and there was a mass migration away from it so I’d avoid that one

      My instance actually posted something about IRC recently I saw, right after commenting. The luck. I saw the mirc client link, and the memories flooded. Mirc is still okay though?

      I’m basically a noob again. Later this week I plan to sit down with my computer and have a look. I used to only use it to download music, probably would like to do that again… I had every NoFx album,song,recording back in the day. Every single one lol I’d die to have that hard drive back.

        I’ve never used MIRC. My client of choice is called Hexchat.

        If I was recommending irc to someone new, I think I might recommend Quassel because it keeps chat history in a more modern way out of the box.
