To connect to HybridIRC, you need an IRC client. Below are popular options:

🛠️ Step-by-Step Connection Guide

  1. Open your IRC client and look for an option to add or connect to a server.
  2. Select "Add a Custom Server" or "New Connection" (the wording may vary depending on the client).
  3. Enter the server details:
    • Hostname: irc.hybridirc.com
    • Port: 6697 (for secure/SSL) or 6667 (standard)
    • If your client has an option for "Secure Connection" or "SSL," enable it.
  4. Choose a nickname of your preference.
  5. (Optional) If you have a registered nickname, enter your NickServ password in the appropriate field.
  6. If you haven’t registered, you can do so after connecting by using:
    /msg NickServ REGISTER password email
  7. Click "Connect" or "OK" in your client to connect to the server.
  8. Once connected, join a channel by typing:
    /join #help
  9. (Optional) To see available channels, use:
