Konversation is an Internet Relay Chat (IRC) client built on the KDE Platform [3] and is free software released under the terms of the GNU GPL-2.0-or-later. [4] Konversation is currently maintained in the KDE Extragear Network module, [5] which means that it has its own release cycle which is independent from the main KDE applications. [6] It is the default IRC client in many prominent Linux distributions, such as openSUSE, [7] the KDE spin of Fedora, and Kubuntu.

Konversation supports IPv6 connections, offers SSL server support, [8] and supports Blowfish encryption. It also supports identity management with multiple server connections using separate identities for different servers [8] [9] and can display multiple servers and channels in one window.

[8] It also features an optional on-screen display (OSD) for message notifications [10] and can save bookmarks for channels and servers. Konversation supports colors, text decorations, and themable nicklist icons. [8] Konversation is also scriptable using shell scripts [11] via D-BUS and includes support for aliases and an action system for automatic events. It also identifies different users in the conversation window by choosing a random color for each user.
