The Canadian Hermit's IRC Server

This is the IRC Server of The Canadian Hermit. You can connect to the IRC server at: irc.thecdnhermit.com, SSL port 6697. (Non-SSL not available.) Main channel is #chat. Due to spam in the past, I require registration with nickserv before you can talk in any channel. This may change soon due to recent anti-spam abilities of the IRC software. Webchat is also available at chat.thecdnhermit.com.

What do you use to access IRC? Is it seamless between devices? I use WeeChat, because with WeeChat installed on my server, use between Glowing Bear in the browser on the computer and Weechat-Android on my Android smartphone is seamless as can be! WeeChat is a powerful IRC client that has its own relay protocol to relay to Glowing Bear (browser app or website), WeeChat-Android for Android phones, and the still-in-beta-testing Lith app for iOS. All of WeeChat's settings and options are well documented on WeeChat's site. However, I found that instructions for comprehensive setup were scattered, and because I feel that anyone who uses IRC should use WeeChat, I took the time to create a fairly comprehensive guide to get WeeChat and its client apps (Glowing Bear, WeeChat-Android, and Lith) set up so you can use them!

For information, or if you have questions or concerns, please find me in chat! Log in from your IRC client or the webclient linked above and look for thecdnhermit.
