In my opinion, we should move away as long as we are able to. They are taking over channels which mention or reference any other chat service in their topic. See [1][2][3][4]. They might get other crazy ideas in the future (or maybe already have), who knows. I would still like to have the possibility to chat over IRC. We shouldn't do a "hard" move to another chat service, like Matrix or Mattermost, since I think there is not enough time to evaluate all non- IRC options and we shouldn't wait much longer. We should rather remain on IRC and use a bridge. This way, people will have enough time to get familiar with the alternative chat service, if we decide (at some later point) to move away from IRC completely. Some thoughts regarding libera <-> OFTC: - The services on libera work like the ones on freenode, while OFTC works a bit different afaik. - The Matrix bridge for libera is WIP. I am not sure if OFTC has one. I couldn't find anything on their website. I am registered on libera and OFTC and I am fine with both, but I don't really use OFTC. Both networks already have a coreboot channel created by people related to the project. Currently, on libera there are 46 people and on OFTC 2 people (me included). So I would say let's move to libera. // Felix [1] https://twitter.com/GrapheneOS/status/1397401277072646145 [2] https://twitter.com/GrapheneOS/status/1397402818324140033 [3] https://twitter.com/mjg59/status/1397389042619097095 [4] https://twitter.com/andy_kelley/status/1397388932367601665 _______________________________________________ coreboot mailing list -- coreboot@coreboot.org To unsubscribe send an email to coreboot-le...@coreboot.org
