I loved IRC in the late 1990's early 2000's... books, music downloads, cricket commentary, tennis commentary before we had cable TV, and I loved the Quiz channels. Programming help early on... Undernet was my favourite... memories!

I used to be on IRC in the mid 90s. I recall using mIRC as the client. Back then, there seemed to be a stigma against "chat rooms". It seemed best not to tell your "real life" friends about it. IRC was probably the cause of my first Internet addiction. I always wanted to be online to keep up with me friends, many of which were in other timezones. That has since become normalized so much that people don't even talk about it anymore.

Hi Paul, been an IRC user for about 25+yrs now. Still using MIRC amongst other clients. Will pop up on your channel. Good to see IRC is still alive and well. Seems still a "thing" amongst the tech community. Thanks for the videos, always look forward to them.

Matrix is another great chat protocol. It’s decentralized and e2e encrypted (if you encrypt your channel/chat). You can also self-host a server though it’s not as light as IRC. Tons of clients for it as well. Biggest difference is that you can follow channels on other servers from your “home” server. Love the content, Never got into IRC personally but I hear all kinds of stories. I feel like I missed out!

I'm too young to 'remember' hype of IRC, but I like the idea of easy protocol that just tells how to text somewhere, without any crypto overhead (because it can be done with other tools). I'd preffer if it was just about how to send messages, files (big static chunk) and streams; basically duplicating what TCP already does, but that will be handy if we want to use one port instead of several and without telling people that "if you want to call someone or share screen, use those mr robot hacker tools to encrypt and send someone your voice, and by the way you'll need to open ports on your router" and get back only "what's the router, nerd?". From this point of view I think IRC is a little bit bloated because it has all sorts of commands for server to work with, and it's authorization is crap. Instead of that we could just use what already exist, like gpg for signing messages for authentication + authorization. Channels can be just a 64-bit handlers for routing purpose only. And so on. I think we need IRC-2 now, instead of Matrix, Tox, Signal, etc.

Hey @TallPaulTech I had a similar problem as you during the sending of the file. You had to change something to your firewall. Could you tell me what it was ? My friend could access my webserver on my local machine but I couldnt send him any files, any suggestions on what to do to fix that ?

No, they are different things. IRC is a very old, very easy, chat protocol with many different servers and clients that are almost all free (with a few exceptions, but nobody is forced to use the nonfree exceptions). Discord is a proprietary service where very young children go to lose their pocket money (buy feature xyz, nitro something something). They also lie about what a server is, nobody except the company named discord owns discord servers.
