discord. guys. it's time for you to visualize a chat app that actually works irc did it in the 90s. you can manage it. come on now. pull your socks up.

Talking about IRC, there is this project that uses AT-protocol for auth, and IRC: freeq.at by @chadfowler.com Wouldn't it be nice if it became mainstream? 😃

interesting! but why? irc didn't require auth, except to optionally protect your username

Things like all messages being signed, cryptographic identity so you can't steal someone's identity in a net split, end to end encryption build in, and all sorts of stuff irc never did or got wrong.
