一陣子沒關注，發現已經甩開了...

Libera.Chat 使用人數超越 freenode

前幾天在「freenode 又在提醒大家搬到 Libera.Chat 了...」這邊猜測這個月月底大概會有交叉，結果發現這幾天 freenode 選擇自爆，直接把上面的註冊使用者與頻道都清空：

這個自爆行為直接讓 Libera.Chat 大幅成長，超越了目前的 freenode：

netsplit.de 上的資料看起來是某個比較長時間的平均值，會需要再拉長一些時間才會反應出來。

freenode 又在提醒大家搬到 Libera.Chat 了...

看到「Last remaining >1000 user community channel seized by freenode staff」這篇，freenode 把 ##linux 頻道給綁走了：

Late in the evening of June 12, 2021, freenode staff seized the largest community channel left on freenode.

新家在 Libera.Chat 上面：

Similar hostile takeovers happened to the Python community, GNU and the FSF. More than 700 FLOSS projects have abandoned freenode and now the Linux.Chat community has left as well; find our new home at #linux on Libera and our multi-platform community website here.

翻了一下「IRC Networks - Top 10 in the annual comparison」這邊的資料，看起來這個月月底有機會交叉？

另外文章裡有提到 OFTC (The Open and Free Technology Community)，看起來也是個對 open source community 開放的資源...
