Quassel IRC, or Quassel, is a graphical, distributed, cross-platform IRC client, introduced in 2008.[4] It is released under the GNU General Public License version 2 and version 3, for GNU and Unix-like operating systems, macOS, and Microsoft Windows. It has also been ported to OS/2 Warp due to its cross-platform nature. Since the release of Kubuntu 9.04 (Jaunty Jackalope) Quassel is Kubuntu's default IRC client.[5][6] Quassel uses the Qt application framework.
Quassel's key feature is in storing chat history on a user's server and providing it to the user, including chat history of when the user's computer was offline.
