Are there any obvious fire-and-forget solutions to hosting IRC servers for friends? With Mumble it's a simple sudo apt-get and you have your voice chat running, but at a first glance IRC seems to be a bit more involved, surprisingly so.
It's literally ~~configure && make && make install~~
docker pull && docker-runfor the ircd image.I love the IRC protocol. We had to implement an IRC client in networking class and the text protocol is so simple and great.
I am interested. Could you point me to a good tutorial to get started with IRC? I think I used some IRC sites before but they felt more like chatrooms
IRC (Internet Relay Chat) is a chat protocol, and all IRC servers host chat rooms exclusively.
If you know where to go, you can find bots. You interact with them with private messages, commands like "!download ". Upon which the bot will create a DCC (direct client connection) with you and transfer whatever you requested.
Of course, lots of bots will enforce some sort of requirement on you, membership on some web site or some such.
Turns out i was wrong and IRC works almost like telegram (atleast a lemming told me (if that is what we are calling ourselves))so can anyone tell me some basics like is goguma agood client ? Which channels to follow etc
IRC works almost the exact same way, there are bots that you can use to request content. It seems like you're asking for suggestions only to shoot them down without even knowing what the suggestion is.
Torrenting also works really well as long as you have your client set up correctly - there are many, many YouTube videos about how to set up qBittorrent, Deluge, Transmission, etc.
This post should be step 1 for you, no one is going to give you instructions because you didn't ask for them.
Ok then can you privide instruction i searched fdroid and saw a irc android client goguma (which is close platform supported with linux )is that good ?
I'm not really interested in creating a detailed write-up/tutorial. But generally speaking, the client doesn't matter. I'd go with Revolution but if Goguma works for you, use that.
The main thing that you'll need to choose is what server you want to join - you can search online for what IRC servers and channels are good for pirated content. FMHY has resources on this too.
Ultimately, learning how to find these answers on your own will make things go smoother for you. It has literally never been easier to teach yourself how to do something than right now. Good luck.
Can't you just share the name or something of a channel you use ?
Dude go figure it out yourself, they've given you more than enough to get started. Stop asking people to hold your hand
ok
