so, TheLounge hasnt been updated since April 2024
>because of that i switched webirc.arisuchan.xyz over to Convos (https://convos.chat/)Its about the same-ish experience except the following positives/negatives:
- requires sign up
+ keeps your nick connected when you leave the page / enables chat history (…like Discord…)
- it will use the name part of your email as your nick by default (signing up with name@domain.com would make you "name" in IRC)
the signup requirement is a little annoying, but its our own server and i don't give a shit to try and access your credentials. you shouldnt be using shared credentials anyways. additionally, the email address you use does not need to be valid. (you dont have to verify it)
the bouncer feature is actually pretty nice, after you register/log in, every time you go to the webirc URL in the same browser youll get automatically logged back in and have
chat history wowowowow (LIKE DISCORD)
plug you can log in from multiple devices (
LIKE… FUCKIN…… UHH…… DISCORD…)
