• It looks like xchat as packaged in some distro basically removed freenode without asking for consent, along with all settings, inserting libera instead    

posted Saturday, June 18, 2022 at 23:58:55

• Upon closer look (just moments ago), it looks like maybe it just blanked Freenode while adding Libera instead, at the very top. A 'dick move'. What's wrong about this is the lack of consent. Maybe they're so sure they protect users? But there is not the way...
