[–] wewbull@feddit.uk 2 points 6 months ago (2 children) Why is it a web client? I'd much rather have a local client. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] InFerNo@lemmy.ml 2 points 6 months ago I still use Hexchat permalink fedilink source parent [–] pedz@lemmy.ca 2 points 6 months ago It's much easier to code this way and it's cross platform. There are some experimental programs like Srain based on GTK. I tried it and it's promising but it's unfortunately too experimental for me so far and it's lacking some features like persistent chat, so one would still need a bouncer which is an additional layer to setup. permalink fedilink source parent
