What's the reason why hosting your own server for a fairly uncommon
chat protocol is better than continuing to use IRC?
I too love dinosaurs... but I also work on 4 different computers and two mobile
devices every day. Having to literally switch hardware to participate in IRC

I also use many different computers and have no such problem, because
I use screen + znc. (Same in fact for email: screen + mutt)
