ografreenode ... heh https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/9j6PSRVJHW/17:51
Unit193Hah, guess you had it out with them a little.  Surprised you didn't lose access to freenode.17:54
Unit193Also if they tell you we abandoned it, don't believe them.  They klined our antispam bot and removed all ops from the ACL. :)17:55
ograi know, i was there 🙂17:55
Unit193Fair enough.17:55
launchdi reverted one of their takeovers and they didn’t even do anything17:58
ograhwo did you do that without having OP ?17:59
ogra*how17:59
launchdi did have op18:02
launchdtheir stupid bot didn’t take my flags lmao18:02
ograi lost it everywhere, even on the channels not mentioning libera in their topic18:03
ograwow ... this is getting hilarious ... he is trying to convince me you IRCC guys are liars and they are definitely right in what they did18:18
* ogra has not had that much fun with IRC in years !18:18
elogra: lol18:22
sarnoldlol18:32
nikoogra: see the bottom of this article https://www.theregister.com/2021/05/26/freenode_irc_takeover/ 18:35
ograniko, hah, he echoes rasegan perfectly fine ... i had not seen that statement yet 18:37
ograasking him if he thinks it is a trademark violation to pretend to be the official ubuntu support channel now made him go quiet 😞18:39
ograso sad18:39
* ogra giggles evilish18:39
hggdhoh, I lost the chat. Must have beenfun18:40
ograyeah, you joined right after my last line18:40
ogralets see if he says anything anymore ... 18:41
Unit193He's still active elsewhere, soo. :)18:43
hggdhit is fun, but perhaps unintended, that they are connected to evilcorp.freenode.net -- [skmo] evilcorp.freenode.net (CA)18:55
ogralol18:56
launchdi’m on freenode soley to piss them off lol19:06
ograi'm actually trying to be helpful and point users asking support questions over to libera ... 19:08
ograand i have yet managed to do that without breaking any "policies" yet ... i guess that pisses him off 🙂19:09
Unit193Thanks for doing that, ogra.19:09
launchdi mean if there’s someone who has a question i can’t help but answer it but like19:52
MajBThe Arizona Team has completed the move to the new channel #ubuntu-us-az on libera.  What must we do now (if anything) to delete the old channel on freenode?  Is it even necessary since we have updated references to our new channel on our web page and our wiki page and have even conducted our first meeting on the new channel?20:09
Unit193Some have advised to +isf ##movied_to_libera, but I don't have advice as to what you should do here.  freenode staff like to hijack channels.20:10
MajBUnit193:  We will continue to monitor the old channel until given other instructions.  I don't expect any traffic on it though.20:12
launchdput moved to libera in the entrymsg20:13
MajBThat we can do.20:13
MajBWe have already placed a link to a web site that tells them exactly that in the entry message.20:16
MajBSo I believe we are ok until we receive further instructions20:16
elfreenode is being predictable yet unpredictable. predictable that they will have a hissy fit over channels notifying their own users about their move, but unpredictable about how and when they will do that.20:37
MajBWe have used our mailing list, web site, and wiki page 20:40
Bashing-omMajB: I am with el bout my freenode channel - wait and see what the Freenode ops do, as ubuntu-unanswered is now allmost all setup for libera.20:47
MajBRoger that20:48
sarnoldI sat around in #ubuntu-hardened (the one that's most $job-oriented) on freenode after parting most of my channels.. and finally quit entirely after a week or so20:51
ograand i got banned ... funny 21:31
Unit193Chan or net?21:32
ograchan21:34
elare they still claiming to be official channels?21:35
Unit193##ubuntu No topic is set.  well there's that at least.21:35
ograyeah, because we abandoned our users there they are now the "ubuntu community" 21:36
ografunnily i actually adjusted my message to his request .... seems that didnt suit him21:37
Unit193Hah!21:38

hggdhstrictly speaking (and, at the same time, in a generic sense) all ## channels (and the majority of # ones) are "community" channels22:45
tomreynmoby thesaurus lists "assimilation" as a meaning of "community". so if andrew is the borg queen, then that seems to be correct.22:56
