Hey all,

Anyone experienced in using mIRC with VPS? I'm trying to get my twitch
bot on VPS so I don't have to keep mIRC on all the time.

The simplest solution would be to use a Windows VPS and manage it via
remote desktop.

Your other option if you must use a linux VPS is xvfb, something like
this guide might help: http://jollo.org/LNT/doc/ps/mirc.html

I highly recommend just getting a Windows VPS, though.

him Ascetik sent you.

Alpharack is fairly cheap for Windows vps

I use Hostwinds, although I have a Debian VPS. Still, works great for
me.

mIRC on VPS... wh...why? Irssi, weechat. Pick one of the superior
clients and join the CLI master race.

I've been using mIRC for a few years. Just used it now I guess. To be
honest I feel like if I transition to something else it may be hard
for me.

[LowEndBox](https://lowendbox.com) has pretty good deals on them.
Usually Windows VPSs are KVM or Xen.
