It might seem weird, and probably will not please everyone, but in my experience, using an XMPP client (Conversations) along with biboumi (an XMPP <-> IRC bridge, https://biboumi.louiz.org https://biboumi.louiz.org (note: I'm the author)) is the best way to use IRC on mobile:
- You can idle in the channels without doing hundreds of part/join when your phone loses the connection
- You get the full backlog of what was said while your phone was offline
And you can host just one biboumi instance for all your users. You can even configure it to connect to just one IRC server. The users just have to join channels like #nodejs@irc.myxmppserver.com
- bremensaki 8y agoThis is exactly what I do - I use Conversations and biboumi to idle in a bunch of channels for various projects I'm watching. Thanks louiz! You do good work!
