   @suricrasia I've never seen a discord/irc bridge that didn't make me cringe, if a decent one exists they must be hiding it well

     @exelotl @suricrasia the matrix bridge shows distinct matrix users as different nicks on the IRC side but this looks like it lumps all discord users together under one bot user

     imo that makes it borderline unusable, none of the features for nick coloring or completion or ignores will actually work

     @technomancy @suricrasia for the gbadev discord I run ircord (https://github.com/Yardanico/ircord) which does a bunch of things quite well:
     - detects bold, italic, newline etc. and makes them look OK on irc
     - detects edits and shows a diff of what changed instead of reposting the entire message
     - detects long messages / code snippets and calls out to a pastebin service instead of sending a multi-line monstrosity (I had to make a fork to stop it linking to the Nim playground though, as it was made for that one community)
