Konversation

Konversation is an Internet Relay Chat (IRC) client built on the KDE Platform[4] and is free software released under the terms of the GNU General Public License.[5] Konversation is currently maintained in the KDE Extragear Network module,[6] which means that it has its own release cycle which is independent from the main KDE applications.[7] It is the default IRC client in many prominent Linux distributions, such as openSUSE,[8] the KDE spin of Fedora, and Kubuntu.

Features

Konversation supports IPv6 connections, offers SSL server support,[9] and supports Blowfish encryption. It also supports identity management with multiple server connections using separate identities for different servers[9][10] and can display multiple servers and channels in one window.[9] Konversation features automatic UTF-8 detection[9] and can support different encodings in different channels.[9] It also features an optional on-screen display (OSD) for message notifications[11] and can save bookmarks for channels and servers. Konversation supports colors, text decorations, and themable nicklist icons.[9] Konversation is also scriptable using shell scripts[12] via D-BUS and includes support for aliases and an action system for automatic events. It also identifies different users in the conversation window by choosing a random color for each user.

gollark: Someone NOT on the server making and compiling the video?
gollark: A good video could be made on this but it might be better with an outside perspective.
gollark: Anyway, to summarise the rest of it, as I'm sure you've seen, eventually the reshuffling thing began actually happening in earnest, and today another thing happened (I forgot what), various people left, more of them joined new esolangs without leaving, and palaiologos pushed ahead with stricter rule updates in a rather authoritarian way.
gollark: Yes.
gollark: Anyway, at some point palaiologos seems to have decided that the server needed a substantial overhaul.(For video purposes you should of course find screenshots of all this stuff; I think much of it was in staff chat though)
