emily | freenode imploding was what took NixOS from "considering a move to Matrix, there's a drawn-out RFC, who knows what will happen" to "guess we're moving to Matrix literally Right Now" | 18:16:38 |
emily | (as I recall. it was years ago, so my memory could be fuzzy. I do know that the NixOS IRC channels were alive and well right up until The Events transpired.) | 18:17:09 |
Cat | Tbh in my view while Lee is a villan he did achive a great public service. | 18:17:40 |
emily | IIRC, it was that or Libera and the judgement call to go all-in on the Matrix switch was made | 18:17:42 |
emily | I thought it a good idea at the time; in retrospect, I'd rather have had Libera | 18:17:58 |
Cat | made everyone wake up to that if your community doesnt control its infra and said infra is irreplaceable the damage can be fucking extreme. | 18:18:11 |
