Getting Started with IRC

Sometimes people will tell you that they can help you more if you visit an IRC channel. If you've never done it before, that sounds scary, but it's easy to set up. There are even ways that will work equally well in Linux and in Windows. How to chat with other KDE users tells you in detail one easy way to get started. Give it a try! More developers are on IRC than read mailing lists or any other help channel.

Registered KDE-Related IRC-Channels

You can find the following KDE-related IRC channels in the Libera Chat IRC Network:

Note

Depending on how your system or distribution configures your browser set to honor irc:// links, clicking on a channel name will start up your IRC client, connect to the server and join the channel. This behavior is browser and system specific.
