I use glowingbear (https://glowing-bear.org/, https://github.com/glowing-bear/glowing-bear) to connect to a weechat session running on a VPS.

The setup is not non-tech-person approachable, but its generally been untouched aside from updates in this setup since 2013.

For non-tech people https://www.irccloud.com/ seems one of the best on offer.
