Googling 'irc client' is always a "blast to the past" adventure

I did give irssi a spin but it seems Cinny has spoiled me 😅

I'm using it atm, but it really feels like there should be sth more, well, FOSSy

It does, but the matrix bridge can be a bit unstable, and I wanted a native experience anyway :P

Thank you! I've made small tweaks since posting, like adding config flags to CLI, for instance --style fill will display "filled" bars instead of "striped":

I think there are two key aspects to IDEs:

a) the larger the codebase and the less familiar you are with it, the more of a nightmare it will be to hunt bugs or search places to insert code; this is where an IDE becomes extremely helpful by e.g. letting you search a struct across multiple modules, showing lints, compiler errors etc.

b) IDEs are only as helpful if they can be configured with your codebase, and sadly there are probably numerous codebases that won't play nice and let you crate a working config

I see they toned down the language a bit, switching "most loved" to "most admired"
