I discovered IRC in the 2020s already (I am Gen Z so wasn't even online before mid-2010s), and from what I've seen in the descriptions of the "old internet", looks like some servers I am in preserved the spirit) Some people in the rooms also have their own cozy websites, including me)
Right on, I rejoined IRC during the COVID shutdowns. It's just nice to be chatting somewhere where a company isn't flooding me with advertisements and/or harvesting my data (that I can tell at least).
