About

A simple Internet Relay Chat (IRC) client that is designed to integrate seamlessly with GNOME; it features a simple and beautiful interface which allows you to focus on your conversations.

You can use Polari to publicly chat with people in a channel, and to have private one-to-one conversations. Notifications make sure that you never miss an important message.
