Huh, (using pidgin) I can not connect to irc.freenode.net, it says "incorrect password", and disconnects. I guess the admins there have banned me or something because I connect to irc.libera.chat :-/
I don't see why - no doubt many of us are on both freenode and libera. This morning on freenode: [Notice] -root- [Global Notice 1/3] We are moving past legacy freenode to a new fork. The new freenode is launched. You will slowly be disconnected and when you reconnect, you will be on the new freenode. We patiently await to welcome you in freedom's holdout - the freenode. [2021-06-15 02:20] [Notice] -root- [Global Notice 2/3] If you're looking to connect now, you can already /server chat.freenode.net 6697 (ssl) or 6667 (plaintext). It's a new genesis for a new era. Thank you for using freenode, and Hello World, from the future. freenode is IRC. freenode is FOSS. freenode is freedom. [2021-06-15 02:20] [Notice] -root- [Global Notice 3/3] When you connect, register your nickname and your channel and get started. It's a new world. We're so happy to welcome you and the millions of others. We will be posting more information in the coming days on our website and twitter. Otherwise, see you on the other side! -- Per Jessen, Zürich (24.7°C) Member, openSUSE Heroes
