Gregory's Server@Baggypants @miah Convenient yes. Many migrated elsewhere to walled gardens and it was fine also.

@Baggypants @miah I just left IRC completely, the channels I ran mostly died and communities are vibrant on slack instead. (I was a PROLIFIC user for decades since mid 90s, highest contributor in some of the largest Freenode channels for years running etc, just as an aside its not like it was nothing for me)  @ripienaar @miah Sure, but if a community I was in moved to slack, I wouldn't have followed it. |
@ripienaar @miah "fine" is a low bar. What we don't have is any figures for how many people just left the community they were in because of the change. I would hope that retention would be higher for people migrating irc to irc verses irc to some other client.
