The topic of the IRC Matrix Bridges room ( https://matrix.to/#/#irc:matrix.org ) now says "A libera.chat bridge is underway - stay tuned..." :-)

No objection from me. I've registered on libera.chat and joined the channels. I support it as an immediate step that may be suitable in the medium term for some cases while I still believe the future is better served by matrix. > My main goal here is to support the former freenode staff.

Nor did I... until I could. Now that I can do so easily and with history, alongside my bridged WhatsApp and Telegram and SMS messages, and control the notification settings for all of them in the same way, I have changed my point of view. It feels natural and convenient and right that I should be able to access all of these on my smallest computer device in the same way as I can on my biggest computer. -- - Julian
