IRCv3 - Hackdot

I wish IRC supported images. It's weird that to share a screenshot I need a chat platform that also support VOIP when I just want to paste an image in the chat.

You are using wrong client then, try Mango. It gives you image uploads and other modern features

You don't need protocol support for uploading images to storage, and then rendering it inline. Many clients have been doing that for years.

Upload to a temp file host and post the link. I'm in several active IRC channels and this happens hundreds of times per day. If you're chatting 1 on 1 there is also XDCC for transferring files.
