Beginning with a phased global rollout to new and existing users in early March, users may be required to engage in an age-verification process to change certain settings or access sensitive content. This includes age-restricted channels, servers, or commands and select message requests.



I love IRC, just need some user friendly client recommendations if we want wider adoption by less tech savvy folks. Though I get the impression there are a good few IRC users who prefer how that filters out the “normies”
I hate to sound gatekeepy, but a flood of new users into an IRC network would be pretty unpleasant for the existing users. There isn’t generally any form of support, so that burden falls to the other users.
