Quassel IRC is a modern, cross-platform, distributed IRC client, meaning that one (or multiple) client(s) can attach to and detach from a central core -- much like the popular combination of screen and a text-based IRC client such as WeeChat, but graphical. In addition to this unique feature, we aim to bring a pleasurable, comfortable chatting experience to all major platforms (including Linux®, Windows®, and MacOS X® as well as Android smartphones), making communication with your peers not only convenient, but also ubiquitous available.
And the best of all: It's free - as in beer and as in speech, since we distribute Quassel under the GPL, and you are welcome to download and see for yourself!
The self-hosted web IRC client
Always connected.
No netsplits on server unavailability
Traditional IRC networks split whenever a server has brief network connectivity issues to the rest of the IRC network, or whenever a server needs to be upgraded. With RobustIRC, your users will not notice when you roll out a new version or reboot the machine on which a particular RobustIRC server is running.
Robust against connectivity issues between clients and the network
A brief hickup of your internet connection means your session will be terminated in traditional IRC. With RobustIRC, you will transparently be connected to a different server.
