events/2021-05-26-freenode-migration

From IndieWeb

Migrating Off Freenode was an IndieWeb meetup on Zoom held on 2021-05-26.

Session: IRC Migration

Participants

Notes

Goals

  • Primary: Get off of Freenode
  • Secondary: Reduce reliance on IRC entirely, let people join from multiple different clients (Matrix, Jabber, etc)

Easiest option today is Libera.chat because we have the channels set up and the staff is the same people who were running Freenode, this is the smallest change. +1


Alternatives

  • Matrix (main one)
  • Matrix (self-hosted)
  • IRC (self-hosted)
    • Cons: requires admin time to defend against abuse/attacks
  • IRC (Libera, OFTC)
  • Web logs as canonical, treat IRC as another channel like Slack


Considerations

  • Single-nick gateways are a dealbreaker


Things to Switch


When?

HWCs are starting in a couple hours. This could also be a good way to let people know about the change.


Preparation

  • DONE: Update https://indieweb.org/discuss to link to new channels, with a note about the time for the switch, and note about Matrix bridge not being ready
  • Prepare a new bot to respond to chat messages in Freenode directing people to the new channels
    • Any time someone says something, say:
    • "This channel is no longer active. See https://indieweb.org/discuss for details"
    • Don't repeat the message more than once an hour
  • DONE: Make a Nickserv account for the Slack gateway


The Switch


Announcements

  • Add a big notice to the newsletter
