I spend a sizable portion of the day on IRC and was wondering what your setups are.

I'd love sth with UX and UI similar to Cinny, so far only irccloud has brushed close enough for me.

The Lounge is a great IRC webclient with built-in bouncer functionality.

Goguma is pretty great on Android, but either needs to connect to a modern IRC network or use a IRCv3 capable bouncer like Soju.

I was hesitant to use thelounge because of the self-hosting part, but it seems is fairly straightforward to spin up an instance even with just free fly.io resources

That's actually a good idea. Maybe share a quick guide on how to set this up when you got it working.
