Suggestion for Web-Based IRC Client

[Teddy]

I have found a nicer themed IRC client that you may want to look into. The QwebIRC client looks really dated and I thought that this might help to make IRC a little more user friendly to use. Also: No Captcha Phrase Required to Enter! Makes it easier on the visually impaired. This is Free and Open Source, fully coded and scripted in JavaScript. No Adobe Flash Used! It is called Kiwi IRC.

Their main site is here: https://kiwiirc.com/.

They also have a GitHub page if you want to look at that here: https://github.com/prawnsalad/KiwiIRC.

Lastly, here is a link I set up for you to directly connect to chat.freenode.net, port 6667, on channel #linuxlite. Nickname is left blank for user to choose.

https://kiwiirc.com/client/chat.freenode...ocommunity.

If you would like to setup another link to directly connect to a network, it is as simple as changing the URL to match the IRC server and channel.

-http://kiwiirc.com/client/chat.freenode.net/channel_name-
                                          IRC Server        Channel Name
                                                                    (no # number sign prefix before the channel name)

Substitute the IRC Server (if needed) and then the "channel_name" to the respective IRC channel to directly connect to (do not put a # number sign prefix on the channel name). I added dashes in the link so that it isn't clickable. Copy and Paste the URL without the dashes and substitute the appropriate information.

That is really it! Hope this helps others get support on IRC instead of having to get support to use IRC!

Update: Since the #linuxlite IRC channel closed down recently, I updated the link to instead connect to the #linuxdistrocommunity.

Thanks Teddy, it is a good looking web client. Will seriously consider this one.

I've added it to here - https://www.freecinema2022.gq/support.html see how it goes.

Cool! I think it will work nicely for you. It sure has for me.
