[21:54:49] launchd/rizon just finished writing a patch for irssi

[21:54:59] launchd/rizon fixed some functionality i've hated a long time

[21:55:21] launchd/rizon ComputerTech: nah the irssi core code is in perl

[21:55:23] launchd/rizon err

[21:55:27] launchd/rizon the irssi core code is in c

[21:55:34] launchd/rizon only scripts are in perl

[21:55:49] launchd/rizon https://github.com/irssi/irssi/pull/1457

[21:56:26] launchd/rizon ^ this is true

[21:59:50] launchd/rizon didn't you used to be +o in there?

[22:02:07] launchd/rizon it was always a shithole sorry

[22:02:27] launchd/rizon then it got so bad freenode staff had to kick them off

[22:02:32] launchd/rizon too many network policy violations

[22:02:49] launchd/rizon (this was obviously back when freenode staff had brains)

[22:03:51] launchd/rizon /!\ ATTN: this channel has moved to irc.rizon.net #childpornandwarez /!\

[22:03:59] launchd/rizon Grid: just join another server EZ

[22:04:17] launchd/rizon that trap channel

[22:04:55] launchd/rizon klinechans have a legitimate use as an abuse mitigation tool

[22:05:11] launchd/rizon (you can set klinechans on botnet control channels, etc)

[22:05:16] launchd/rizon for the good of society

[22:05:40] launchd/rizon foxy: you still haven't left there?

[22:06:31] launchd/rizon what does one do as a freenode staffer nowadays?

[22:06:43] launchd/rizon do dead bouncers need a lot of staff help?

[22:06:57] launchd/rizon are there anyone but spammers?

[22:06:58] launchd/rizon lmoa

[22:07:19] launchd/rizon i mean

[22:07:27] launchd/rizon if y'all had stayed on chary with Sigyn

[22:07:34] launchd/rizon you wouldn't have to worry about ascii

[22:08:42] launchd/rizon ComputerTech: they're pretty much the same except solanum has more features lmao

[22:09:06] launchd/rizon and some stupid shit you shouldn't have been able to do in the first place was also removed

[22:09:53] launchd/rizon it's gonna be retired in the not too distant future

[22:10:18] launchd/rizon https://github.com/Libera-Chat/sable is the new sheriff in town

[22:12:54] launchd/rizon foxy: its gonna feel mostly the same to users but with some big quality of life improvements

[22:13:30] launchd/rizon also irc is dying anyways it needs some new life breathed into it to keep up with discord, matrix, et. al

[22:13:52] launchd/rizon i thought freenode was all about advancing irc :P

[22:14:06] launchd/rizon ComputerTech: argue all you want but activity levels overall are pretty telling

[22:14:49] launchd/rizon there are people like us who will stay around but new users just won't stop by, projects won't host support channels here, etc

[22:15:50] launchd/rizon ComputerTech: well you're weird and 17 year old you was a little while ago :P

[22:17:09] launchd/rizon i hate matrix too

[22:17:16] launchd/rizon slack is what i use for work

[22:17:51] launchd/rizon it's slow and suffers some of the same security pittfalls as its much older sibling: Email

[22:18:48] launchd/rizon irc is defintely more lightweight because it doesn't go over http and doesn't have all the federation nonsense

[22:19:22] launchd/rizon if you're talking about the sopel dev, i just talked to them last night

[22:19:39] launchd/rizon second2050: if you think about the way they both work, irc certainly uses less

[22:25:25] launchd/rizon its easy to start *a* network

[22:25:43] launchd/rizon a *proper* network is a lot of work and requires a lot of knowledge of the underlying technology

[22:25:54] launchd/rizon as ComputerTech learned the hard way :P

[22:29:19] launchd/rizon second2050: garageband :P
