When you said you can use it in a potato you mean like self hosting ? Yes I heard about the bridge :)
Hosted or client, there's IRC clients for everything, even on a Commodore 64 (https://csdb.dk/release/?id=197138)
Oh thats cool , how can I start on IRC?
Start by choosing a network, try something like Libera Chat https://libera.chat/
You have some suggestions for IRC clients on their page, you can even use one on the browser. Browse the channels available, join, chat
Literally on a potato. It requires near zero computing power.
