the tilde.chat irc network is available at <code>irc.tilde.chat:6697</code> (with ssl)
as a round robin of <a href="https://tilde.chat/wiki/?page=servers" target="_blank">available nodes</a>.

tilde.chat is meant to be a space for all tilde members to hang out, share, teach, and learn.
Hang out in <strong>#meta</strong> the tilde general channel. =)

<strong>note</strong> you must register with <code>nickserv</code> to talk in <code>#meta</code>:
<code>/msg nickserv register &lt;password&gt; &lt;email&gt;</code>
</pre>
<br />

<h2>&#35; here are some options to connect</h2>
<br />
<ul>
  <li><code>weechat</code> (<em>when logged in with ssh</em>) / <code>irssi</code> (<em>needs to configure</em>)</li>
  <li><code><a href="https://znc.envs.net/" target="_blank">znc</a></code> - log in with your email password and configure as needed.</li>
  <li>run <code>webirc</code> to register your thelounge account for <a href="https://webirc.envs.net/" target="_blank">our webchat</a><br /><em>note that thelounge does not authenticate with your shell/mail password.</em></li>
  <li>any other client that you like: connect to our node at <code>irc.tilde.chat:6697</code> with ssl</li>
</ul>
<br />

<h3>&#35; znc (irc bouncer)</h3>
<pre>
the system znc authenticates using your email credantials (<em>user: username</em> | <em>password: your email pw</em>).

the znc interface is available at <a href="https://znc.envs.net/" target="_blank">znc.envs.net</a>.
client connections are on port <code>6667</code> and <code>6697</code> (both with ssl).

you can add network connections (up to 10) via webadmin or via a direct client connection.

<h3>&#35; weechat relays</h3>
<pre>
weechat introduced <a href="https://weechat.org/files/doc/stable/weechat_user.en.html#relay_unix_socket" target="_blank">unix socket relays</a> in version 2.5 which is a much easier way to
offer per-user relay access.
<code><em>username.envs.net/weechat</em></code> is configured to proxy to the default unix relay
socket location (<code>~/.weechat/relay_socket</code>). to get started using it, follow these steps:
</pre>
<br />
<ol>
  <li>in weechat:
    <ul>
      <li><code>/relay add unix.weechat %h/relay_socket</code></li>
      <li><code>/set relay.network.password mysupersecretpassword</code></li>
    </ul>
  </li>
  <li>at your shell:
    <ul>
      <li><code>chmod o+rw ~/.weechat/relay_socket</code> - <em>this allows nginx to connect to your socket on your behalf</em></li>
    </ul>
  </li>
  <li>in your relay client:
    <ul>
      <li>weechat-android:
        <ul>
          <li>connection type: websocket (ssl)</li>
          <li>websocket path: weechat</li>
          <li>relay host: username.envs.net</li>
          <li>relay port: 443</li>
          <li>your relay supersecretpassword</li>
        </ul>
      </li>
    </ul>
  </li>
</ol>
