What IRC client do you all recommend for Android? I’m looking for a non-paid option that will allow me to connect to a passworded host. Any suggestions?
I’ve always used Revolution IRC, and haven’t had any issues with it.
This looks like it will work well for me, thanks! Giving it a try now!
I second this, Revolution is great
I’ve been using Weechat-Android to connect to my self-hosted Weechat for over a decade. This is one of the killer mobile apps that keeps me on Android and I love it.
I also have a couple instances of thelounge that people use on mobile via the PWA (progressive web app).
Using a self-hosted thelounge too and, as alternative if my home connection drop or so, I have irssi in termux.
i gave up on irc clients for android and use matrix with irc bridges. elements app
Quassel server at home and Quasseldroid to connect to it.

Of course, it’s the best proto for chat, I use it actively everyday since 1997.

So simple, no images, no videos, no bullshit this just works… Now mainly out of habits and because I have some friends on it… Also some nostalgia about the time internet was more than http and so on

Ngl, in this day and age with ads and cookies riddled in every corner of the Internet. Irc sounds like a breath of fresh air!
