# Why IRC though?
This is a legitimate question. We live in the era of many programmers using both open-source and proprietary solutions such as Matrix and Discord respectively as a form of communications between developers and bots. Seemingly these services do offer many more features than one of the very first internet communications technologies - IRC - does.
I, however, do not really care too much for the features these platforms offer when it comes to the basics of communications. I immediately disregard services like Slack or Discord due to their proprietary nature. As for services such as Matrix, I do actually make quite extensive use of it now and then so I have nothing bad to say about the user experience with such a service and I think the additions such as end-to-end encryption are very cool however IRC and Matrix do have some differences at a technical level. Matrix is federated whilst IRC networks form a spanning tree rather than necessarily direct server-to-server links (or a _"full mesh"_).
