More #NonfreeNode update: Gentoo #Freenode channels have been hijacked https://www.gentoo.org/news/2021/05/26/gentoo-freenode-channels-hijacked.html

Today (2021-05-26) a large number of Gentoo channels have been hijacked by Freenode staff, including channels that were not yet migrated to Libera.chat. We cannot perceive this otherwise than as an open act of hostility and we have effectively left Freenode. 💣💥

> freenode has been the home for the entire FOSS community for over 20 years. Fracturing the community only hurts users and FOSS. Your users don’t wish to migrate. Stop forcing them.

You know what? "Fracturing the community only hurts users and FOSS?" Hilarious. 🤣 #Freenode #NonfreeNode
