THE CLIENT
WITHOUT THE CHORE
WITHOUT THE CHORE
Your IRC stays awake, even when your browser does not.
Freakshells is a modern Web IRC client that connects over HTTPS and is designed to be usable on desktop, tablet and mobile. It uses the open-source The Lounge web IRC client as its underlying software. We operate and manage our own instance and provide user accounts, so you don’t need to configure anything — just sign in, join networks and stay connected while your public IP remains hidden from other IRC users.
