You can look at Matrix, but it won't help you, since Matrix additionally has a DAG datastructure for decentralized chatrooms, which allows to recognize and deal with bad servers in an open federation.

Additionally, it's richer in features

I don't understand the Matrix hate. Matrix is the defacto successor to IRC and it is getting feature parity with Discord. IRC refuses to evolve and it will become irrelevant.
