I personally use libera.chat because it’s the most active IRC server out there. is there any other active servers? I found this website to search for different IRC servers https://netsplit.de/networks/

    I used to be active on IRC a decade or so ago, I was QuakeNet and Chat4All for the most part.

    I don’t use much lately because I’m usually on mobile and I don’t like using IRC with an intermittent connection.

    But libera.chat is the one I log on to when I do. I would be curious about servers and channels that offer something different: most are about technology.

      Please consider taking a look at the lounge. It’s a self hosted solution that you access thru the web. It’s solved that problem for me since it is always running on the server. If you have a Raspberry Pi you can use that or a VPS.

      have a look at quassel for persistent IRC connectivity and quasseldroid for mobile client access back to your quassel instance.
