+# IrcColors
+
+Makes username colors in chat unique, like in IRC clients
+
+![Chat with IrcColors and Compact++ enabled](https://github.com/Vendicated/Vencord/assets/33988779/88e05c0b-a60a-4d10-949e-8b46e1d7226c)
+
+Improves chat readability by assigning every user an unique nickname color,
+making distinguishing between different users easier. Inspired by the feature
+in many IRC clients, such as HexChat or WeeChat.
+
+Keep in mind this overrides role colors in chat, so if you wish to know
+someone's role color without checking their profile, enable the role dot: go to
+**User Settings**, **Accessibility** and switch **Role Colors** to **Show role
+colors next to names**.
+
+Created for use with the [Compact++](https://gitlab.com/Grzesiek11/compactplusplus-discord-theme)
+theme.
