A tale of two IRC networks:#Freenode: kicked us out of our channels, harassed one of our ops on their home page, made supposedly "draft" policy changes to permit hate speech#LiberaChat: participated in our forum to address questions about governance and non-profit structure and asked for feedback on improvements:
It's official, #Wikimedia is moving to #LiberaChat / @liberachat I've set up most of #mediawiki (still missing one bot), which, according to ChanServ, was originally created on Freenode by @eloquence on Jan 02 20:06:07 2004 (17y 20w 2d ago)!!
I'm "legoktm" on @liberachat Looking forward to chatting with people in #wikimedia, #mediawiki, #wikipedia and more :)
