Continued thread

I'm getting a little nostalgic here, but like many, I started with mIRC so I could pirate software, audio, and video. But around this time, I was also finding my footing in #FreeSoftware.

I eventually setup a Sun workstation with NetBSD and ran BitchX behind GNU screen. So long as I had an SSH client, I could access my IRC session.

I then migrated to Irssi then WeeChat. I was connected to Freenode, OFTC, Mozilla, and many other networks. All in Free Software channels.

Projects traditionally choose IRC, but it's now considered outdated & insecure. It has sustained a long decline and many FOSS projects are moving to modern chat protocols which offer encryption, file sharing & seamless sync. When possible, get in touch with your preferred FOSS projects over XMPP or Matrix!
