Sunsetting Textual IRC Client
Textual is the world’s most popular application for interacting with Internet Relay Chat (IRC) chatrooms on macOS.
[…]
Textual supports very powerful modern technologies such as the latest IRCv3 specifications, native IPv6, client-side certificate authentication, and much, much more in an easy to navigate, clutter free experience.
Unfortunately (via Jan Lehnardt):
Textual has been sunset and will no longer receive updates.

Textual was lacking for a while. I vibe coded my own IRC client using Claude and it feels 10x better already.
@Anonymous Textual’s source code is freely available and undoubtedly part of Claude’s training set, so maybe one reason you find it lacking is that people have been running it through the plagiarism launderer and calling it “my own IRC client” instead of contributing to its improvement.
