+1 to gitter.
I am not on IRC anymore, since it's really inconvenient, given that I
frequently switch several computers. Gitter works perfectly for me. I
really wished they fixed account permission issue together with
github.
I decided to trust them for now.
Hm. Well. You trust in two things:
1) Their ability to keep intruders out.
2) Their moral integrity.
The latter is a real problem.
I have led business entities and know how slippery that slope is;
ultimately, any business entity will submit to fishy practices, however
hard they try to avoid that.
And even if you think you can trust them - please be aware that even if
your judgement were sound in 95% of all cases, you won't know whether
Gitter is the one in twenty cases where your trust was misplaced.
So... assume the worst they could do, and assume that sooner or later,
it will happen.
My worst-case assumption wouldn't be that they change the sources (that
would be instantly visible), but that they access confidential data.
I.e. don't use a Github account that has seen confidential data with
Gitter, and things should be fine.
