0% Only use from phone

@coolbean if people talk about bouncers it was usually in the context of chat history and receiving messages while offline

@coolbean @snacks ergo is the only ircd that does this stuff by default and exclusively. for the ones that federate and are older than ircv3 you will need a bouncer.

soju is a great choice because it also has extensions that allow clients to connect to all configured networks with only one soju connection, and it allows file uploads to a built in http server to share stuff in the easiest and most reliable way possible

@snacks @coolbean for ergo you only have to register an account via nickserv. my server enables persistence by default; for others you may have to do that yourself to receive messages while offline
