If people want to experiment with chat, you could check out Libra.Chat:
I think there's already #trinity-desktop on Libera Chat.
I also want to mention that I suggested Matrix in the first place because it supports full end to end encryption. I agree with Nik and others that encryption is vital these days so I find what supports it. I use the halogen.city homeserver over matrix.org's as an added guard because the main group behind Matrix is shady as others have said before, but the protocol itself is FOSS. Overall, Matrix is like a newer clone of Jabber (I prefer the old name "Jabber" over XMPP) and is growing in popularity via Element as a client.
It doesn't bring anything new to the table that Jabber already has so maybe its better, but I find Matrix more user-friendly.
I also like that Kopete can be used with Jabber but the OTR encryption plugin isn't readily available for all distros or FreeBSD. Perhaps we can have an encrypted Jabber room for TDE that is easily accessible in Kopete.
By exploring IRC through Matrix I didn't find any Trinity room in Libera.Chat. However, the legacy Freenode still holds one which you can access from Matrix.

Supports all kinds of IRC, group chat, etc. See below.
