Title says it all. It takes zero effort to open one and I spend most of my day staring at my terminal anyways so I could administrate it pretty easily. If we do have one (or like a freenode channel) let me know what it is so I can join.
It’s cool but I’d personally be more comfortable with something e2ee like Matrix than IRC
It’s freenode totally dead yet?
Yeah basically, I’m unclear on what exactly happened but suddenly everybody jumped ship so I assume it’s dead.
LiberaChat is the replacement for the Freenode IRC network (operated by former Freenode staff members), which underwent a hostile takeover about a year ago. As far as IRC networks go, it serves as a hub for open source software development and many other collaborative projects.
RE: @Bobby_DROP_TABLES : As far as I know, we don’t have any IRC channels. LiberaChat would probably be a good place for one, but it would likely have to go in the unofficial namespace (##hexbear rather than #hexbear) unless someone wants to actually go through the effort of registration.
