What is Konversation?

Konversation is a user-friendly Internet Relay Chat (IRC) client which provides easy access to standard IRC networks such as Libera, where the KDE IRC channels can be found. Konversation supports popular platforms like Linux, Windows and FreeBSD. It is the default IRC client in many prominent Linux distributions, such as openSUSE, the KDE spin of Fedora, and Kubuntu. IRC users can share files with other online users. Direct Client-to-Client (DCC) is a type of peer-to-peer filesharing using an IRC server for handshaking in order to exchange files or perform non-relayed chats. A typical DCC session runs independently from the IRC server once established.
