I sure would.  I'd also avoid anything as complex as discord appears to
be - for example, I tried to add XMPP support to my chat client and
have stalled because of all the complexity.  It feels like
second-system effect applied to IRC.  What little I've found about
matrix makes it look way too complex as well.

Recently, I've started hanging out in #netbsd on irc.oftc.net.  It's
been pretty dead; I'd love for it to wake up - or to hear about a more
active NetBSD IRC channel.  (I'm using Maus there, because someone else
scooped Mouse already.)
