It was a collection of silly quotes from IRC channels everywhere, many of which dated back to the 90s. It was rarely ever updated in the 2010s, but now, the URL no longer resolves.

Last capture was July 2023. https://web.archive.org/web/20230601000000*/bash.org

EDIT Someone archived all the quotes on the Internet Archive.

IRC was so much better than Discord. People are stupid.

Except the lack of a decent mobile client that doesn't require you to self-host something to receive all messages

This is genuinely the only problem why we switched to Signal for work communication. My colleagues wanted us developers to use Slack and other proprietary stuff but IRC was enough. Only issue was that you couldn't get push notifications on mobile.

I asked about a good mobile client for Android, and was recommended Revolution IRC.

I mainly use it to keep an eye on my IRC server, but it's worked well so far
