Sailfish OS IRC channels moved to oftc.net

[sledges]

Dear Community,


We have now moved our IRC channels to the OFTC (Open and Free Technology Community) network.

Please join our channels there (you can also connect via their WebChat):

• #sailfishos (bridge: Matrix)
• #sailfishos-porters (bridge: Matrix, Telegram)
• #sailfishos-meeting (bridge: Matrix, Telegram (read-only))

Telegram bridges are managed by community members and will be pointed at the new channels in the coming days. In case of delays, please find and contact the responsible community member.


Kind regards,
sledges

Hm, you may want to consider linking the official matrix bridge for oftc instead, which allows you to join any room by joining #_oftc_#channelname:matrix.org instead of the freenode bridged room aliases?

In this case that would be:

• https://matrix.to/#/#_oftc_#sailfishos:matrix.org
• https://matrix.to/#/#_oftc_#sailfishos-porters:matrix.org
• https://matrix.to/#/#_oftc_#sailfishos-meeting:matrix.org

It also may be nice to enable something like OFTC - Anti-Spam Bot on the channels, the spam is pretty annoying.

Many thanks, I’ve updated the original post.

It’s good to know such aliases exist. Legacy links were pointing to riot.im, missing _underscore_ before the network name, and the meeting room had a very old IRC channel name, hence the confusion.
