As you may have heard, the Freenode IRC network has been taken over by
a hostile corporate entity.[1][2] The #emacs community has already
moved.[3]
I suggest we stop promoting it in Emacs, and instead promote the
community run Libera Chat.[4] This would mean removing most
references and links to Freenode in our sources and documentation.
Are there any objections to this plan? If not, I will be happy to go
ahead and make the necessary changes.
