<selwyn> today i will switch to weechat for all my chatting needs
10:49:43
Colleen
<selwyn> in large part so that i can use lichat natively
10:49:56
Colleen
<selwyn> any recommendations for clients on windows/linux? i like a graphical client
10:50:03
Colleen
<shinmera> weelichat has a bunch of problems still, as you might have gathered from the discussions here.
10:50:29
Colleen
<selwyn> what do you use?
10:50:44
Colleen
<shinmera> uuuh, weechat itself is cli-only. it has a bridge with which you can then use a graphical client like glowing bear.
10:50:49
Colleen
<shinmera> I use weechat through tmux.
10:51:03
Colleen
<shinmera> and sometimes I use the android client on the go
10:51:43
Colleen
<shinmera> my weechat instance runs on one of my servers
10:51:58
Colleen
<shinmera> so I don't have connection issues and such
10:52:32
Colleen
<shinmera> SAL9000 is the local weechat expert though :)
10:58:12
Colleen
<selwyn> plan is to have weechat running on my server and tunnel in with one of the clients
10:58:21
Colleen
<selwyn> 'lith' seems like the best option for windows
10:59:07
Colleen
<shinmera> If you don't hate browser clients, glowing bear is the best I've seen
11:00:20
Colleen
<shinmera> on windows I still use tmux, just through a mingw64 terminal/ssh.
11:00:37
Colleen
<shinmera> or, actually, with the ssh extension enabled you can use the basic powershell, too.
11:04:54
Colleen
<selwyn> yeah i don't prefer browser clients
11:05:18
Colleen
<selwyn> or those other options
11:08:21

selwyn: I'm running weechat on my NAS in tmux, ssh'ing in from Windows via MSYS2 (aka the "modern" MinGW)
11:08:40
SAL9000
glowing-bear works but it's not as good as native weechat imo
11:09:01
Colleen
<shinmera> he's not here atm
11:09:30
SAL9000
ah. can't see membership from the other side. hopefully I can find some time to hack on weelichat again soon
