I personally use libera.chat because it’s the most active IRC server out there. is there any other active servers? I found this website to search for different IRC servers https://netsplit.de/networks/

    I don’t use much lately because I’m usually on mobile and I don’t like using IRC with an intermittent connection.

    But libera.chat is the one I log on to when I do. I would be curious about servers and channels that offer something different: most are about technology.

      Please consider taking a look at the lounge. It’s a self hosted solution that you access thru the web. It’s solved that problem for me since it is always running on the server. If you have a Raspberry Pi you can use that or a VPS.

      have a look at quassel for persistent IRC connectivity and quasseldroid for mobile client access back to your quassel instance.

      I’d also be interested in learning about IRC servers that were more social and less technology driven.
