TransIRC is a small, independent IRC network created by and for trans and questioning individuals. We aim to provide a safe, supportive space for chatting, organizing, and sharing—away from corporate platforms and invasive tracking.

• Server: irc://transirc.chat
• Port: 6697 (SSL Required)
• Main Channel: #Welcome
• We support SASL, IRCv3, and modern clients like HexChat, irssi, and weechat.

You can also use our Web Client to connect from your browser.

Our network prioritizes privacy:

• No persistent chat logs.
• No backend database on the web client.
• Ephemeral chat history (in memory only).
• Optional Tor access for anonymous and censorship-resistant connections.
• Account passwords are hashed securely with `bcrypt`.

Our custom bot includes community tools and moderation support:

• `!pronouns` — Set or update your pronouns.
• `!pronouns <nick>` — Check someone’s pronouns.
• `!report <nick> <reason>` — Report a user to admins.

See the Full Command List for more.

We offer alternate connection methods for users in restricted or monitored environments:

• SSH backdoor access
• Tor hidden service
• Clean IP/domains to evade common blocks

To request access, use the `!backdoor` command after your account has been registered for at least 48 hours. The bot will send you the details via private message upon verification.

• Registration is required to join most channels.
• The network is monitored for safety but stores no persistent user logs.
• The bot also supports features like karma tracking, flood protection, and invite monitoring.

If you're new, start by joining #Welcome, and say hi!
