Note that IRCv3 is backward-compatible, so you don't need a new client. Any existing IRC client can connect to it just fine; including multi-protocol clients like Pidgin. And if you do want a client with all the new IRCv3 features, that client can still connect to old IRC servers.

I uninstalled irssi once my friends moved to newer and better protocols, so yeah, I will need to.
