Lurker is an open source self-hosted always-on IRC client with a web UI, and a ZNC/soju-compatible bouncer.

https://docs.lurker.chat/IRCV3

Lurker is a self-hosted always-on IRC client with a web UI, which can also
act as a ZNC/soju-compatible bouncer, so it gets an entry in both sections.

The client entry covers what it negotiates upstream: irc-framework's base
set plus chghost, echo-message, extended-monitor, draft/multiline and
+typing. Deliberately omitted are setname (never requested) and sts (not
implemented by the library at all), both of which would be easy to assume
from other entries built on the same library.

The bouncer entry lists only what it advertises downstream to an attaching
client. MSGREFTYPES is timestamp-only, so chathistory is claimed on that
basis; soju.im/bouncer-networks and znc.in/self-message are also supported
but have no keys in the support vocabulary.

@jwheare If you'd like to join the #lurker channel on libera.chat and check out the project, I'm sure you'd see it is not low effort. I've been developing open source apps for about a decade now, prior to the invention of AI.

@jwheare are you really upset that a yaml file was generated with AI? your comments here suggest this is so https://github.com/ircv3/ircv3.github.io/pull/629/changes

But it's a yaml file. What are you upset about exactly here?

Not upset, just put in a little effort if you expect some back.

@jwheare what exactly am I supposed to do here? the yaml file I would 'write myself by hand' would be the same code in this PR?

@jwheare oh I see now, you are afraid that your irc cloud will lose some clients.. that is not nice bro... This is really good software. But you know what? Lurker and other clients do not need your approval... People will review that...
@DanielOaks @DarthGandalf Please review this...

@DarthGandalf sure thing but please do not pretend that is a good practice to get ircv3 popular ... as he did block pr without proper project review...

I will let others from IRCv3 comment on whether or not I have a history of silencing "competitors". I get that it's hurtful to have your work be dismissed, but I assure you there is no monopolistic conspiracy.

Please see my response here for more context: #616 (comment)
