I need to setup an IRC bridge so that I can participate in these chats without having to use an ugly, confusing IRC client... #millenial #problems

  @ckhonson If you have any suggestions for the Slack bridge, feel free to file issues here: github.com/aaronpk/Slack-… I'll check with the #social folks to make sure everyone's okay with it, but it's easy for me to run the bridge for that channel too.

  Oh, haha. Yeah, some formatting from bridge could be improved, but I'm just whining at that point :). I can follow up here after Christmas if you want additional help in making /social bridge work. Would love to participate in socialcg but already have like 5 chat applications...

  @ckhonson I could see about bridging that room to Slack too. That botspam is actually all the people on IRC talking. There was a Slack iOS bug fixed a few days ago that made everything look like it was coming from Loqi.

  Riot.im also leaves some UI things be desired, but I can at least use it without getting super frustrated like what happens every time I try to use a decades-old IRC client...

  I'm in the Indieweb Slack bridge. Wonder if it's possible to bridge the /social into a Slack room? Also there's lots of botspam on that server overall that makes it hard to read (Loqi is cool, but I mostly want to talk to humans :p)
