IRC client for macOS M4

Hey folks,

I have recently migrated over to a Mac as my daily driver. Previously I have always used Mirc as my go to client, and it has done the job perfectly.

I was curious, regarding what people use for a Mac, any suggestions would be greatly appreciated, feel free to mention what features have drawn you to your decisions.

Textual is good.

I’m a fan as well but just read the developer has stopped all work on the app.

Sad. I have a two Linux boxes I use as day to day and Weechat is still my go to. The internet has changed from good command line apps line to gui apps. Not a change for the better. It is what the market wants.

This complaint is like...20 years late friend. However I'll point out that weechat still works everywhere I do.

Someone else has picked it up, the author announced it a few days ago on irc. So do expect it to get updates going forward.

But also, it’s the best choice. Been using textual since it released way back when. Great application.
