As a web app, it's actually a lot easier to make modifications than desktop software, without needing an unwieldy encyclopaedia of settings checkboxes.

For things that are common requests, we work on adding appropriate settings, but it's impossible to give everyone exactly what they want, so custom user stylesheets and scripts are generally the answer.

Check out https://userstyles.org/styles/browse/irccloud for some examples, have a look on our wiki: https://github.com/irccloud/irccloud-tools/wiki or join our #themes channel on irc.irccloud.com for info and help on customising the ui.

Often, the best community extensions get integrated into the app, but we're still a small team so it can take time :)
