I was on mIRC, ICQ and MSN all day with my friends in the late 90s-2000s so chat definitely existed!

Which of those are still used a good amount, particularly the first two? And mIRC is a client for the IRC system, right?

Funny enough, until around 2015 I was constantly on chat with friends, at work, all day. Things still got done.

After that things got a bit more asynchronous with social networks and the like.
