As one of the most popular IRC (Internet Relay Chat) clients, mIRC helped shape the culture of real-time online communities in the 1990s. With a friendly interface and customizable scripts, it introduced many to the power of group chat and global conversation.

While IRC is less prominent today, mIRC continues to support a dedicated base of developers, hobbyists, and open source communities.

IRC started in 1988 when Jarkko Oikarinen created a real-time chat protocol 🌐 It soon grew into major networks like EFnet (1990) and Undernet (1992), shaping online communities long before social media.

Here's a May 1993 memo by J. Oikarinen and D. Reed about IRC protocol that defines an Experimental Protocol for the Internet community: https://archive.org/details/rfc1459

Status of This Memo
This memo defines an Experimental Protocol for the Internet community.  Discussion and suggestions for improvement are requested. Please refer to the current edition of the "IAB Official Protocol Standards" for the standardization state and status of this protocol. Distribution of this memo is unlimited.
Abstract
The IRC protocol was developed over the last 4 years since it was first implemented as a means for users on a BBS to chat amongst themselves.  Now it supports a world-wide network of servers and clients, and is stringing to cope with growth. Over the past 2 years, the average number of users connected to the main IRC network has grown by a factor of 10.
The IRC protocol is a text-based protocol, with the simplest client being any socket program capable of connecting to the server.
Below this are the Contents. 1.1 Servers
The server forms the backbone of IRC, providing a point to which clients may connect to to talk to each other, and a point for other servers to connect to, forming an IRC network.  The only network configuration allowed for IRC servers is that of a spanning tree [see Fig. 1] where each server acts as a central node for the rest of the net it sees.

A board can be seen with "Indian Coffee House" written on it in a big font. A café can be seen behind the board.

Here's my terrible attempt at writing propaganda on college walls lol

A white wall inside a classroom of a college, on which "Ditch Windows, Use Fedora" is written using a blue chalk. The words "Windows" and "Fedora" are implied with their respective hand-drawn logos.
