Show HN: Localslackirc – Lets you use IRC to connect to slack (github.com)

I made this because I can't stand the slack interface.

IRC clients are fast instead of slow, and do not display GIFs and memes automatically (I can still click to open them).

I can configure notifications.

I can configure it to not mention me when "@here" is typed by certain people or on certain channels.

It's just much quieter and easier to handle overall.
