Why do you use IRC? - myowninstance

I am very new into this chat applications and read about IRC and Matrix. Matrix seems its more new and modern. So I just wonder what’s the reason you are still using IRC?

Matrix is bloated, eating VPS resources and it’s tied to Israeli Intel. Xmpp is better than bloated matrix. Besides I don’t trust matrix very much. Most of users use main matrix instance and don’t botherteo spread the servers to avoid centralization

You realize IRC servers can read all of your messages, right? If you’re trying to hide from Israeli intel, that’s not how you do it.

Also they should realize noone cares about them like that, nobody is going to come after them and E2E is E2E.

I am using Matrix because Noah in his Podcast Así Noah Show really like to talk about it.
