Regarding my comment, IRC was just a quick little example - to focus on that is to miss the forest for the trees.
The lack of connection is the point.

OP lamented that things like IRC meant that if you weren't always connected, you'd miss messages.
I simply posited, from a philosophical perspective rather than the technical perspective you are focused on, that it's OK for us to not be connected all the time. That not everything we miss is as important as we feel it might be when we think about missing out. That the truly important details will make their way to us one way or another.
Again, I know this. And please don't mis-quote OP, they clearly said "miss", just like I said.
I've told you twice, now, that you're focusing so much on the technical aspect of a connection that you are completely missing the philosophical idea I have very clearly, also twice, suggested. How IRC works, on mobile and on desktop, is not the point. I don't know how else to explain myself, so I'm gonna move on. Hope you have a pleasant day.
Edit: For posterity's sake, OP's quote at the time of this this post is...
>... if you have a connection interruption you miss messages.
