-With an IRC bouncer, you will now be able to receive messages while you're offline. A bouncer helps save messages for you while you're disconnected so your IRC client can download them once you log in later on. Our bouncer also lets you chat with users on other networks (such as Telegram or Discord). It also hides your IP for anonymity and security. We don't log your chat data; we only log metadata to prevent abuse.+With an IRC bouncer, you will now be able to receive messages while you're offline.
