https://matrix.org is another chat technology. Its IRC integration is pretty nice, but #pumpingstationone is not quite one click away, yet.

Easy way:

If you don't want to rely on that companies SaaS, pick another or host your own server. you can host it as PS1 if you want. it is fun.

Some other options: https://matrix.to/#/#freenode_#pumpingstationone:matrix.org

Of those options, Element is popular. Works well on both desktop and phones. We use it to send cat pictures pretty often ;)
