For two reasons:

quakenet doesn't support ircv3 goodies like /history
it fragments the community by having separate IRC rooms and different services (matrix vs discord).

Freegamedev.net admin here.

In fact the official Xonotic chat on Matrix is already plumbed to our #xonotic channel, see: https://irc.freegamedev.net/kiwiirc/#xonotic (which is also accessible via XMPP)

We could also easily provide additional bridging to Discord and legacy IRC networks.
