This whole #reddit situation feels very dejavu to #freenode and its collapse.
What a #shame to destroy a #community on purpose 😓

Elon Musk's acquisition of #Twitter is starting to resemble Andrew Lee's takeover of the #freenode IRC network.

@atarifrosch @Haydar isn't that literally the remains of the #Freenode implosion?

@Sandra It didn't work terribly well. Few of its users even replied to our questions. Judging by other weird encounters (there was the occasional wave of Italians looking for warez), it seemed that someone set up a customized client with a list of IRC servers and channels to join by default. Which of course explained how they'd end up on #freenode, but little else.

@Sandra I remember something on Freenode back then where some people joined #freenode and thought it's a dating chat. Apparently there was a Dating app using IRC for this purpose...

J'ai à peu près fini le brouillon d'une conférence que je devrais donner pour les #JDLL (https://jdll.org, à Lyon). Si elle est acceptée, j'y parlerai de #Caliopen et de pourquoi on ne s'y intéresse pas (alors que c'est trop bien), d'optimisation pour l'engagement, de #capitalisme, de capital culturel (de manière plutôt schématique), de #Durkheim et de #Bourdieu, de la migration rapide de #Freenode à #LiberaChat, de #Matrix et de #Lavabit, et plus encore !

@spot What a fantastic example of this that #FreeNode turned out to be.

I got curious about what happened to #Freenode, and I read an article about it, and... it seems really similar to what happened to #Twitter recently...

#TwitterMigration

Ich denke #Twitter wird sich nie wieder erholen. Solche "feindlichen Übernahmen" gingen auch in der Geschichte des IRC nie gut. Jüngstes Beispiel ist die Abwanderung der Benutzer von #FreeNode zu #LiberaChat: https://netsplit.de/networks/top10.php?year=2021

#Twitter seems to be adopting the death spiral model of #freenode, just on a much larger scale.

Freenode was the largest IRC site, until it was bought by a rich nut job who seemed to implement a new crazy policy every day, one of which was banning people for discussing how to leave Freenode. (I wasn't involved - I just watched the events unfold, 2nd-hand.)

Now I'm technically violating Twitter policy by linking to my Mastodon account in my profile (https://twitter.com/TwitterSupport/status/1604531265419591681). But, since the entire purpose of my Twitter account now is to direct people to Mastodon, there's nothing for it but to just see if they decide to ban me for leaving.

Anyone else getting #Freenode flashbacks from the latest antics of Birdsite Caligula? I bet you do, @cadey

Anyone else getting some #Freenode flashbacks from Birdsite Caligula?

@SDF I mean, isn't this parallel to what killed #Freenode #IRC and led to #LiberaChat? https://libera.chat/
It's amazing to see a group of people flexing their power.

the current drama on here reminds me so much of what we saw happening on #irc with the crumbling #freenode, and #liberachat taking over, just on another level

2 of 3...

Freenode was an IRC network/server that hosted a lot of open source communities, and free speech channels.

Earlier this year there was what can only be described as a coup, most of the admins resigned and within days had set up a competing network/server libera.chat, and literally within a week or two almost the entire set of content / channel providers had moved elsewhere, taking their users with them and leaving freenode a ghost-town ...

What is happening with Twitter is the high budget version of Freenode a year and a half ago.
#twitter #freenode

Lo que está pasando en el pajarraco se parece muchísimo a lo que nos ocurrió en #freenode a los cuatro frikis que aún usábamos #IRC en 2020

@recursiveelegance Hmm, I thought IRC faded out when #FreeNode went down. I guess it survived to some extent through #LiberaChat and maybe #OFTC.

Brands migrating here from Twitter might be smart to disable their account, or Twitt might take them from you. That happened during the fall of Freenode, 18 months ago. The story has striking parallels to Twitter's: Got sold to rich dude. Staff left. Rules against hate speech were removed. Starting banning links to alternative networks...
