IRC still exists. There's nothing stopping anyone from joining a server and a few channels.
Counterpoint: I am too young to understand this technology, it scares me, and I am unwilling to learn.
Then you can stay on forums that needs to be refreshed, or uuuh.. isn't there a proprietary IRC like thing for young people, something like Disco? Or Discom. Or Discord? Apparently it's much like IRC but without the freedom.
I think that's always been the allure of IRC in modern internet times... Keeps the normal people away and makes it a place that's more exclusive to nerds. It's scary, you have to learn a few things, has it's own etiquette and you can't just use it from any phone.
I think there are more than enough online spaces specializing in weird nerds. More interested in escaping the first world nerd bubble than ever.
Any good recommendations how to do that on the internet?
To see what happened you need a bot running saving messages.
Just use matrix, it's good enough to replace IRC
I use TheLounge which saves and display history for me.
Convos also does that.
I am still on IRC, have my own server, and use TheLounge as a client. We can paste mp3s, mp4s and images on the channels. It just works fine for us.
You use something that's constantly connected. I'm fine with letting another server handle that part without self hosting
