I see a lot of options on Fdroid. Which one do you guys like the most?

    I used both for years but always preferred weechat with the nicklist enabled and at the top, so that it didn’t break urls or selecting multi-line text. Although the nicklist feature is moot for huge irc channels the ui and user experience is overall better with weechat in my opinion.

      You can also use weechat as a bouncer, and it works even better with its own clients which can sync chat history rather than receiving it in a dump. The android client is fantastic in that respect.

      The plugin ecosystem is also great. I have a plugin that pushes notifications for PMs and mentions to my gotify server, alerting me on my phone without having to drain its batteries staying connected.
