Ergo

Ergo is a modern implementation of an IRC server, designed to bring the classic Internet Relay Chat protocol up to date with contemporary expectations for online communication. It provides a robust and scalable backend for hosting chat communities, focusing on stability and performance. Unlike many proprietary chat applications, Ergo offers the flexibility and control inherent in the open-source IRC ecosystem, while incorporating features that address common pain points of older IRC servers.

The core value proposition of Ergo lies in its ability to empower users to build and manage their own chat networks with modern capabilities. It aims to bridge the gap between the reliability and simplicity of traditional IRC and the advanced features found in today's messaging platforms. This makes it an ideal choice for those who appreciate the decentralized nature of IRC but require a more feature-rich and maintainable solution for their communities.
