I personally use libera.chat because it’s the most active IRC server out there. is there any other active servers? I found this website to search for different IRC servers https://netsplit.de/networks/

    IRC is open. If you aren’t around, someone can join the server using your nickname, so IRC services were created to help combat this. Some networks use other services, but mainly there’s NickServ which you setup an account with to register your nick. If anyone tries to impersonate you, NickServ will do bad things to the imposter

      How do I register with one of these nickservs? I tried with an android client but I couldn’t figure it out.
