Xchat is dead and probably insecure and shouldn't be used anymore.
Hexchat is its successor, and has a more up to date server list.

You can search for IRC networks that might not be in the server list
of your client by using a website like
[Netsplit.de](https://Netsplit.de). That said, /u/boo_odd makes a
valuable suggestion. Don't use XChat, it is quite dated and likely
insecure. HexChat is free, actively maintained and includes a handful
of networks in the default server list.
