FYI, it seems that, just like other IRC channels that were migrated:

        
https://www.gentoo.org/news/2021/05/26/gentoo-freenode-channels-hijacked.html
        https://voidlinux.org/news/2021/05/freenode-takeover.html

        https://twitter.com/bagder/status/1397433855817170949

the channel was hijacked at freenode:

        /msg chanserv INFO #osuosl

        Information on #osuosl:

Trying to join it redirects to:

        # #osuosl

Thanks,
