Welcome to Retro Projects IRC Network
Greetings and welcome to
RetroNode
, an IRC haven for all your retro projects! The name should remind you awfully of
freenode
. That's right, we deliberately came up with something resembling that to give you the good old "nodey" vibe. Would you like to learn
more
about it? For now enjoy your stay, feel free to create and re-create channels (that is, if you are coming from
freenode
and/or
Libera.Chat
) but do take your time to read our
terms
, please.
Quickstart Guideline
To connect to an IRC network you obviously need a client. It is not really our job to pick an IRC client for you, you can find all the information you need on the web. Still, if we were to choose a client today, then we would go either for
irssi
or
HexChat
. One is superlight and minimalistic, the other boasts advanced functionality and is considerably more user-friendly. Both are available for Windows and *nix. If you wish to connect to us immediately just issue
/server irc.retronode.org +6697
in your client and off you go. Alternatively, you could always use our
WebChat
straight in your browser.
