on tilde.cafe you can hangout and chat on the `#cafe` channel of [tilde.chat](https://tilde.chat) irc (best for casual chat and exploring other tildes and related communities),
or `#tilde.cafe` channel of [libera.chat](https://libera.chat) irc (preferred for support)
https://username.tilde.cafe/weechat is configured to proxy to the default unix relay socket location (~/.weechat/relay_socket).
to set it up:
0. make sure you start weechat in a way so that it keeps running after you log off, easiest way is inside tmux (or screen, or byobu),
1. in weechat:
1.1. `/relay add unix.weechat %h/relay_socket`
1.2. `/set relay.network.password CorrectHorseBatteryStaple` (use your own secure password, it can be anything, it's independent from the shell/email password)
1.3. `/save`
2. every time you start weechat, in another shell (such as tmux window or pane), `chmod 606 ~/.weechat/relay_socket`
you'll need to do step 2 every time you restart weechat, but other steps will never need to be done again
some clients that allow connecting through this relay are [Glowing-Bear](https://glowing-bear.org/) web-client and [Weechat-Android](https://github.com/ubergeek42/weechat-android#weechat-android-relay-client)
port is 443, domain is username.tilde.cafe (substitute your username), password is what you just set as relay password, and on weechat-android, make sure you select `websocket(SSL)`
