Due to the recent events at Frenode [0], the channel has become a bit unreliable (much spammed), and users have started to move away already, as quite a few other projects have moved their IRC presence away from Freenode. There are a few alternatives. The first to spring to mind, is the new Libera.Chat network [1], managed by the previous Freenode staff, so we could expect quite a good experience there. However, it is a very young network. The second well known alternative is the long-established OFTC, which has been very reliable in its 20 years of existence. So, let's move to OFTC, just because it has a track-record of robustness (which Libera.Chat still has to build, for being young). Note: there are a lot of other IRC networks, some very good too, but we probably would be much off-topic on most of them.
