/msg nickserv set kill on - With protection on, if another user tries to take your nick, they will be given one minute to change to another nick, after which NickServ will forcibly change their nick. If you select QUICK, the user will be given only 20 seconds to change nicks instead of the usual 60.
/msg nickserv set secure on - With SECURE set, you must enter your password before you will be recognized as the owner of the nick, regardless of whether your address is on the access list. However, if you are on the access list, NickServ will not auto-kill you regardless of the setting of the KILL option.

I never stopped using irc since before even messengers like icq where a thing. Why change something that just works? A friend of mine that works in IT-sec told me recently it's considered part of the darknet now.
Yes it is still widely used and has most of the newest stuff that torrents have. And if you use irc and used to it its very easy to automate your daily downloads.
Yeah, you'll be suprised on how many people don't know about this. Let's hope this information gets more attention. And you haven't used irc for 20 years check out some xdcc channels they are very active.
I still love IRC and it is my go to place to look for books. I like to use Pidgin chat client since i got fed up of ever increasing timer on mIRC. https://www.pidgin.im/ is free and allows logging into multiple XMPP and IRC accounts simultaneously.
