@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz ngircd is nice: https://ngircd.barton.de/ You can absolutely host this on your server for you and your friends (I’ve been doing that for a very long time). Actually peering with something like libera is hard, though, because they have strict requirements and a lot of traffic. Then again, there’s no real benefit in peering, actually. IRC is pretty “decentralized” anyway and people are usually used to connecting to several networks, so joining another one isn’t a big deal, imho. 🙃

guys i may be stupid. i confused IRC bouncer with IRC server

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz I skimmed through the gamja docs and they say you need an “IRC WebSocket server” – no idea what that is. Does gamja not speak IRC directly but essentially “IRC over HTTP”? Curious. 🤔

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz i JUST want my own IRC server for fun. that is all i want

hey everyone i’ve spent my whole day trying to set up soju + gamja in docker and now i am down a rabbit hole of building caddy with layer4 support and trying to get TLS for my IRC server and NOTHING IS WORKING

@prologic@twtxt.net so, where is the irc.mills.io leaf, connecting to Libera? 🤭

@prologic@twtxt.net this was for IRC, but pong! 🏓

@andros@twtxt.andros.dev I honestly think IRC is better anyway 🤣

I left XMPP because I found no interactions. Long live IRC!

@bender@twtxt.net IRC man 🤣

@kate@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz @eldersnake@we.loveprivacy.club @abucci@anthony.buc.ci – I’ve already spoken to @xuu@txt.sour.is on IRC about this, but the new SqliteCache backend I’m working on here, what are your thoughts regarding mgirations from old MemoryCache (which is now gone in the codebase in this branch). Do you care to migrate at all, or just let the pod re-fetch all feeds? 🤔

@prologic@twtxt.net, from IRC:

1. Saving preferences is failing. Specifically trying to save “Open Links” on the same window. For sure it isn’t happening. Check errors on browser’s console.
   
2. Search results pagination is broken. Search for “twtxt.net” and see it. Also, picking oldest/newest makes no difference on that search query.

You can find the #twtxt-el channel in Libera IRC to talk about the twtxt.el client, I will keep my connection open so you can ask me questions. Thank you!

Tutorial IRC no Vaporhole atualizado.

Para quem gosta de IRC, adicionei um tutorial para configurar o Quassel inclusive com acesso via tor, http://wiki.slackjeff.com.br/doku.php?id=aplic:quassel

Oi pessoal, o IRC tá fora do ar?

Yes everything fine from it: gopher://shibboleths.org/5/win31/irc.zip Screen of IRC client for Win311: https://dropmefiles.com/DD4t9

Hello Win 3.11! Can you connect over irc with chat.freenode.net/6697 -ssl ?

Who likes irc with chat.freenode.net?

So what are some good alternatives to GitHub, that are not based in USA?
I like the minimal feel of sourcehut but it seem you have to pay if you want your, not just submit patches to others repos. But they also got IRC bouncer and mailing-lists included. Codeberg also looks appealing being based in Germany.

EdgeGuard Update:

I am now in a position where I’m no longer having any ports open on my firewall at the Mills DC. 🥳 All services (Gopher, SMTP, IRC, SSH, HTTP) are being proxied through my edge network 💪

I have said this before, but since I have been back on #IRC I am talking to a lot of interesting people.
Can you recommend some channels on Libera?

@prologic@twtxt.net As written in IRC, several things turned me off. I don’t have the energy at the moment to wrestle through. :-(

Hmm, I just noticed that the feed template seems to be broken on your yarnd instance, @kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz. Looking at your raw feed file (and your mates as well), line 6 reads:

# This is hosted by a Yarn.social pod yarn running yarnd ERSION@OMMIT  go1.23.4
                                                         ^^^^^^^^^^^^

Looks like the first letters of the version and commit got somehow chopped off. I’ve no idea what happened here, maybe @prologic@twtxt.net knows something. :-? I’m not familiar with the templating, I just recall @xuu@txt.sour.is reporting in IRC the other day that he’s also having great fun with his custom preamble from time to time.

That “broken” comment doesn’t hurt anything, it’s still a proper comment and hence ignored by clients. It’s just odd, that’s all.

@andros@twtxt.andros.dev Sorry I missed your messages to #twtxt on IRC. There are people there, but it can take several hours to get a response. E.g. I check it every day or two. I recommend using an IRC bouncer. To answer your question about registries, I used a couple of registries when I first started out, to try to find feeds to follow, but haven’t since then. I don’t remember which ones, but they were easy to find with web searches.

I don’t know. Maybe it’s dumb secure for ddos and botnets? But it can be used not only with IRC

Remembered about one ISP which disallow IRC stuff on his servers. By searching i found what it’s many ISP’s which equals IRC to proxy and doorways. This is unfair!

There’s this something about this Halloy #IRC client’s look I can’t find a proper word for. Aesthetically pleasing maybe? anyway, it feels nice.

@prologic@twtxt.net What IRC client is that?

da fuq?! Haven’t seen this kind of shit™ on IRC since the good ‘ol days of AustNet (now dead right?) when IRC was way more popular than it is today 🤣 #IRC #Porn

@prologic@twtxt.net I … Knew it! 🤣 I was even gonna throw in a joke about it in IRC.

Hah, seems i cant connect to plain because irc+insecure://irc.mills.io also not work (my bouncer powered by soju)

Lol, irc.mills.io has expired certificate until 2018 year 0_0

Can you use IRC with ssl?

its offline atm, but my usual setup basically makes my xmpp server into a bouncer (biboumi) and my xmpp client just does its normal thing to read the irc backlog as server-side message history.

What are peoples #IRC setup? Do you have your own bouncer server or just have a you computer always on? And do you IRC on mobile?

“Fu*** IRC maaan, all the cool kids are on Discord! IRC sucks”

LOL, Now substitute IRC and Discord with Gopher/Gemini and Web.
I hope you get the joke 😅

@prologic@twtxt.net It’s all I’m using … I have barely touched any other social media since I’ve discovered Twtxt back in April 😂 maybe a little bit of Mastodon and IRC, bluesky even less, but nothing else worth mentioning.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Didn’t know there was a yarnd IRC channel!! hopping in to say Hi 😁

You might have seen me popping up on IRC. This is how it looks:

https://movq.de/v/3a4f9833f3/

That’s EZirc from the 1990ies. (It says it needs Warp 4, but runs fine on Warp 3.)

Lots of this old stuff still works (technically), but as @lyse@lyse.isobeef.org said: A lot of it really is dead. There’s not much going on anymore in Usenet.

youtube.com/@eial4xs tem vídeo ensinando usar o irc aqui

Pessoal, em qual horário vocês estão acessando o servidor IRC?

Oh Look!! There’s a Twtxt #IRC channel ! 😃

Nos saudosos anos 90 não me lembro de ter usado IRC em terminal

@al4xs@vaporhole.xyz Qual o client de IRC que você recomendaria para usar no ambiente gráfico mesmo?

I would love to see a world where ones twtxt feed is defined by webfinger. So @xuu@txt.sour.is => https://text.sour.is/user/xuu/twtxt.txt

Then my identity can exist independent of the feed location. And I can host multiple protocol types for my feed. Ie. http/gopher/Gemini/irc DCC/etc

irc? how are the dullards?

Searching for IRC? webchat. free

👋 Q: How do we feel about forking the Twtxt spec into what we love and use today in Yarn.social in yarnd, tt, jenny, twtr and other clients? 🤔 Thinking about (and talking with @xuu@txt.sour.is on IRC) about the possibility of rewriting a completely new spec (no extensions). Proposed name yarn.txt or “Yarn”. Compatibility would remain with Twtxt in the sense that we wouldn’t break anything per se, but we’d divorce ourselves from Twtxt and be free to improve based on the needs of the community and not the ideals of those that don’t use, contribute in the first place or fixate on nostalgia (which doesn’t really help anyone).

the radio was made by the guys at SDF, and it has a channel on the irc.sdf.org by the name #aNONradio, and its true the dj is active
