Freenode has now set up new servers without migrating the nickserv/chanserv databases, and will likely turn off the old servers later. You could say freenode has shut down and there is now a new network under its name. We don't have any registered channels in the "new network", or even channel topics set.
Are we going to move to libera.chat already? It has been more than three weeks since Andrew Lee took over. I'm *done* waiting for Matrix to reconfigure the bridge. Leaving it unbridged entirely is preferred to the current situation. You can't say that would split the chat community because it's already split anyway (there's more users in libera.chat KDE channels every day, as of yesterday irccloud users couldn't use freenode anymore, #kde hasn't been properly bridged for a long time, etc). Just tell me when and I'll switch IrcsomeBot/sKreamer/pursuivant bots to libera.chat, and update documentation (I already prepared commits for 30+ repos for this). I can also bring IrcsomeBot into Matrix rooms temporarily until the proper Matrix appservice is set up. But I will not accept any more delays caused by Matrix/EMS. Let's get out of freenode. -- Nicolás
