[Gluster-users] Freenode takeover and GlusterFS IRC channels
I'm relatively new to the community but I would vote for having a point of presence on libera.chat, or OFTC as some other F/OSS projects are moving there as an alternative. I use IRC daily for supporting my own projects as well as related projects such as GlusterFS. Personally I hadn't heard of Matrix until the whole Freenode fiasco happened, so I would imagine others may be in the same boat. Anyway, just my $0.02 :) Cheers, Jordan Erickson On 6/7/21 5:51 AM, Anoop C S wrote:> Hi all, > > I hope many of us are aware of the recent changes that happened at > Freenode IRC network(in case you are not, feel free to look into > details based on various resignation letters from long-time then > Freenode staff starting with [1]).

[Gluster-users] Freenode takeover and GlusterFS IRC channels
We (at least many developers and some users) actively use Slack at https://gluster.slack.com While I agree that it's not a free/open alternative to IRC, it does get many questions answered, and also gets communication happen related to the project.
