About
Quassel is an IRC client, which is completely free for both Windows and Unix-like systems.
Quassel has been developed since 2008 and has recently not been updated (last version is 2022)
Features
- The client uses a client/server architecture similar to running a bouncer on your own host, it is also possible to run the server component on a VPS
- Cross-platform on Windows and Unix-like OSes
SASL
Quassel supports SASL in the network configuration for each network individually (e.g. tilde.chat or libra.chat) and is called Auto Identify/SASL
It also supports CertFP connect and SASL EXTERNAL based on it (this is configured on the identity section)
It currently does not support DH Challenge authentication (but tilde.chat doesn't either, so thats not a problem)
