MODERATORS
People gave up IRC for this bullshit
IRC doesn't really work on the modern internet where there are moderation concerns beyond a 14 year old with a spam script.
The XMPP folks are slowly picking away at being able to do grouped chatrooms over that protocol. Hopefully they figure that out before Discord completely implodes.
IRC v3 protocol was an attempt to modernize, and if the market didn't fragment there surely would have been more changes to become more modern.
XMPP, likewise had similar issues. Google and Facebook embraced then extinguished it.
maybe some did but the majority probably never used a dedicated IRC anything and only used it at all on twitch
