Oh, I don’t expect it to happen, I’m just pointing out that it still exists and takes care of some of that functionality. I don’t think I’ve ever seen gifs, videos, or screen sharing implemented in IRC.

Better though because you don’t need an account, and can gain a lot of anonymity via an eggdrop or vpshell etc.
