any idea?

The message implies that the certificate installed on the IRC server isn't correctly formed. Is it a public irc server? I got something similar and just disabled tls.

thanks for suggesting that workaround @cardonator!

going to close this one as wontfix, i'm happy to revisit if it's a massive pain for lots of people but it sounds like there's a known workaround here
