Textual7.1.6

Outstanding Product! Best IRC client in the Universe!

The state of IRC on the Mac is a really sad one. So disappointing. All the good clients haven't been updated or maintained for at least five years now. :( I get that IRC is kind of a niche service but there are still hundreds of thousands of people using it. Yet all we have left on the Mac is Textual. One single IRC client. And even though I try to like it its more of a love-hate relationship. Some of the features work well while others (like assigning my own keyboard shortcuts) never have for me. And while people using mIRC on the PC can just right-click-block a user in Textual you have to open the Ignore List from the menu, click the [+] button, add the nick followed by some syntax, then, save, then save again. Then hope that you did it right. If I am missing the easy option, I'd love to know. I don't think there is one. The Mac is supposed to be the easy one, the user-friendly one. Its apps should reflect that. Unfortunately Textual -- at least from my point of view -- does not. Unfortunately it's all we have left now, there is no other choice.

Outstanding Product! Best IRC client in the Universe!

A well thought out IRC client, that has a simple intuitive interface. Well supported with quick response time for anyone with questions. Priced very well (with a suitable trial period) for anyone looking to explore one of the internet's classic protocols. Personally I found this client better suited to my needs than freeware Colloguy and I confidently purchased Textual on the first day of my trial.

Beautiful app. Actively being developed. Super clean interface. Buy it and support the future of this app.

Best IRC Client I found. Better then Coloquy because more stable more descent design.

A stable, well supported and fully featured IRC app.

Nothing else compares!!!! Best IRC client available!!!! Developer updates app constantly and it's very stable and is loaded with tons of featurs and customizations!!!! I use it everyday, So 5 Stars

Version 4.0.1 on MAS now for a while. I guess they are not updating MU anymore either. :/

I gotta say I like Textual a lot, its cheap and does a good job as long as you don't need dcc. I don't think anyone still uses dcc. I am not sure if this is comparable to limechat as limechat is very basic. I switched from linkinus, which was a memory hog.
