CIRCLE WITH A DOT

@burnoutqueen Sure, but girl my point still stands, you didn't say anything to combat it. If it at least had those first 2 It would already be great.

Not everyone uses Discord, incredibly, more people use Whatsapp, Signal and Telegram than Discord. Everything they have in common is the first 2 features. IRC will bring freedom if it allows Voip and message history, like, come on.

If anything kills Discord it will either be those or Matrix, but unfortunately nobody is going back to IRC.

@burnoutqueen IRC needs to evolve a little bit for people to actually use it again.

First and most important change: Actually save the message history in every client that is retrievable;

Second: Voice chat.

Third: Bots like Pluralkit.

Everything else is tertiary, but people want and need modern features to express themselves. Saying it was fine in the 2000s and not changing anything doesn't help anyone.
