I never really got used to IRC myself, but it's usually fine when connecting to IRC via Matrix.
BTW, what other communication channels would you have expected?

Primarily an issue tracker on codeberg, gitlab, github, or something with support for pull requests / merge requests for contributions. Direct communication is secondary for most projects, IMO unless it's big/used enough that users require direct support - in which case: Matrix.
Projects like that make me want to create a uucp network and so I can email a bang path address to get my patch.
