Projects and channels that have decided to leave Freenode
Freenode is dead. Long live Libera! This repository is no longer being updated.
This is an ongoing list of projects and channels that have decided to permanently move out of Freenode to https://libera.chat (unless stated otherwise). Please open an issue, PR or PM me on IRC (siraben) if there's additions or corrections, such as adding citation links.
Note: I can only accept additional projects and channels to the list accompanied with a citation, which can be (but is not limited to): an official announcement, wiki page, git commit, IRC log, social media post by project lead/official account, etc.
