I haven't used IRC for 20 years. Thinking of getting back into it. ircii under linux with screen so I can reconnect from anywhere. Should we setup a poal IRC channel; on EFNET? What are our options now.

Matrix/Riot.im/Element/WhateverTheyWantToCallThemselvesThisWeek is a federated Discord alternative.

Matrix and the Element client are nothing like Discord. Discord is unencrypted and run by degenerate furries. Matrix is the protocol that runs on the back-end. Element is just the client interface, there are many clients for Matrix. It is end to end encrypted and you can federate or not, whatever servers you want, it's entirely up to you.
