I started working on Halloy back in 2022, with the goal of giving something back to the community I’ve been a part of for the past two decades. I wanted to create a modern, multi-platform IRC client written in Rust.

Three years later, I’ve made new friends who have become core contributors, and there are now over 200 people idling in our #halloy channel on Libera.

My hope is that this client will outlive me and that IRC will live on.

I use it, it's really good and getting better every release.

It's fast and robust. The toml config is also straight forward.

Highly recommended!

PS: I preferred the old (bird) icon
