@p @meso @coolboymew @thelioma IRC is such a nice protocol, I wish people used it more often and it was more accessible for normies.
@coolboymew Bro, I swear, normies have a literally magical ability to sniff out non-proprietary software like a hound so they can reflexively reject it.

@NEETzsche @coolboymew I think it's less due to being open source and more due to being less user-friendly. FOSS programs are usually made only by programmers and the user base is more tech-savvy, so we usually don't notice it too much. But for people that don't use computers that often, every little thing can become a hurdle.
