Connect today! cservices.ddns.net
Downloading a client is the first step in getting chatting on IRC. Any client will work. Here are the clients i use for my different platforms:
Windows- HexChat
macOS- LimeChat
Linux (Desktop)- Pidgin
Linux (Terminal) Irssi
iOS- Mutter
Android- Revolution IRC Client
Chrome OS / Google Chrome- CIRC (no affiliation with cIRC services)
Web Browser- Kiwi IRC
No 2 clients are the same, so setup will vary. However, if you open your client and you are able to get to a input box where you can input a message, you will probably be able to connect to cIRC with 3 simple commands.
1- (Optional) Set your nickname.
/nick {nickname}
example:
/nick PersonName572
2- Connect to cIRC.
/server cservices.ddns.net
3- Join a channel.
If you don't know what channel you want to join, feel free to join #general
/join {#channel}
example:
/join #general
IRC (Internet Relay Chat) is an online chatting protocol, first seen around 1988. Operating on internet ports 6660 through 6669 with the addition of port 7000, IRC was the father of popular online chatting services, such as Skype and Discord.
cIRC is the 2nd service offered in the cServices series. cIRC is hosted on a Raspberry Pi 3. The maximum people that can be online on the server at once is 512 users.
IRC doesn't have a set list of channels. Anyone can make a channel as they please. To make a channel, just attempt to join a nonexistent channel. For example: /join #channelname would join #channelname. If #channelname does not already exist, cIRC will create #channelname and put you in it. You will become an operator of that channel.
IRCbot is the bot of cIRC! It does things, like every bot does.
Lots of things. Run .help to see the command list.
IRCbot is in #general and #bots. Contact me to get IRCbot added to your channel.
