The noteworthy (IMO, obviously) communities/projects that I have seen jump ship (either voluntarily or by force) are wikimedia & wikimedia, ubuntu, gentoo, centos, kde, postgres, sourcehut, wesnoth, mutt, vim, emacs, lisp, scheme, clojure, haskell. Any other ones that I haven't seen yet?

I want to say just that I appreciate the positive and largely non-confrontational tone of this post. Considering the circumstances it could have as easily become muddled with bitterness and/or cheap snipes.
Who controls libera.chat domain? It says it is a swedish nonprofit (although I cant see any specifics on their website), but the unredacted portions of the whois show it is owned by an Icelandic entity.
Sounds like scope for more future drama...

This controversy has got me back on IRC. It feels good to be sitting in chatrooms and occasionally able to pitch in and help people. And the interface is better than Slack. :-)
Don't tell it everywhere. Some people might get offended. :D I agree with you though.
When the issue blew up last week, we quickly reserved our slot on Libera just in case. Some of our staff were pushing harder for Libera, and I was concerned it was a bit fervent and sensational, but ultimately went along with it.
It's been sad to see over the last week how quickly they were proven right, and how it only took a few days for the new so-called freenode to deal a killing blow.
Had we been still uncommitted to the Libera move, Andrew's actions this morning would have hurt our community more.
