You only have 30 minutes after you post to make changes.

curaga:
Well, if freenode got nuked, then it's fine for libera to be the new irc.

netpipe:
libera seems to have more people but freenode seems to have the same old people. someone suggested using matrix.org or discord to connect irc channels together somehow probably like a ircbnc bouncer.

Mir:
It is a bit late as we already moved to Libera.chat.  Anyone who had admin rights at the old freenode lost them in the great purge and the new freenode staff where not willing to work with the few of us who had channel rights before the purge.

Edit:  oh and the new freenode staff do project channel takeovers with any talk of migrating to some other service or irc server.  so just be aware.  Also I have been ip blocked on freenode for some reason, i have been with the community since before the split between tinycore and dsl.  The situation with freenode happened very quick and required swift action.  There was also a lot of fallout.  Another thing with libera is some of the server staff that helped us on freenode are with libera and are more than willing to help out if the need arises.

On libera you do pop in at times that i am not awake and when i get ready to reply you are netpipe.  So an irc bouncer or quassel might be a wise idea.
