I found myself loving what this guy writes about IRC, and I think a lot of his words will go straight to the heart of specially the older nerds here on Lemmy.

Hope you enjoy.

    Irc clients don’t need to be in a web browser, and personally I don’t want persistent chat saved forever. I also just want text much of the time.

    That said, I do find some of the features in discord (and hence in matrix) nice. I just currently have only a support for lemmy in Matrix and haven’t seen groups use those servers yet. Discord hasn’t yet caused a migration.
