Dear Abby, I never thought it would happen to me...

But I honestly just configured my #IRC clients in a way that I prefer to other chat clients, and it does involve tmux (as byobu) and both irssi and weechat...

...and also bitlbee, znc, and ngircd.

Xkcd comic titled Team Chat [Hairbun holding up her palm toward Cueball. A frame over the top border of the panel has a caption:] 2004 Hairbun: Our team stays in touch over IRC. [Megan is looking at Ponytail who is holding up her palm toward her. A frame over the top border of the panel has a caption:] 2010 Ponytail: Our team mainly uses Skype, but some of us prefer to stick to IRC. [Cueball is talking with Megan in a frameless panel. A frame at the top of the panel has a caption: ]2017 Cueball: We've got almost everyone on Slack,Cueball: But three people refuse to quit IRC and connect via Gateway. [A black panel with white text and drawings. The main body of text is above the singularity, a starburst around a circle with two more broken lined circles around the starburst. To the right another Cueball-like guy floats in space with his laptop computer, typing on the keyboard. A frame, that is white inside, is over the top border of the panel has a caption: ]2051 Narration: All consciousnesses have merged with the Galactic Singularity, Narration: Except for one guy who insists on joining through his IRC client.One Guy: I just have it set up the way I want, okay?!Galactic Singularity: *Sigh* Alt text: 2078: He announces that he's finally making the jump from screen+irssi to tmux+weechat.
