  • It really depends on the channel, but sadly, mostly no. I am in one cool one that is part of the tildes network, and I am in lots of ones on libera, but they are less active than they were 20 years ago. There are still many people on there, and it is a good vibe. Especially if you want to chat about programming or FOSS stuff.

    If you try it and like it, it is worthwhile to configure a always-on connection that you can detach and reattach to - which is how discord and everything modern works. IRC being old means it is an extra thing to do, bit well worth it! Some people never go that route though.
