gollark: Not chatbots, I mean chat platforms.
gollark: Didn't most of their chat stuff fail horribly?
gollark: Most of the IRC logs you can get are from more technical communities, because nobody else uses IRC, which is maybe not ideal.
gollark: I'm not sure where you'd get more data in the same real-time-chat-ish style. Most of the newer platforms (like here) are very walled gardeny.
gollark: Only 200MB or so though.
