And yes I just created another fucking chat thread, I'm not the same spammer/cianigger/mod that keeps fucking the catalog up. This topic is a bit more important then hur dur just use tox for chat. which you should be using.

>>989610 (OP)

>network exclusively used by pedos to trade cp/snuff

>forced deanonymization

Truly shocking, no one could have possibly foreseen this outcome.

>>989615

Hey fucking captain obvious, can you not read for shit? I am more concerned about free and open source software devs being able to communicate anonymously and securly then your fucking stupid pedo fantasy. Kill yourself or delete yourself faggot cianigger.

freenode irc over https never fails to connect.

Just use a socks5 proxy or some shit if your using a client.

>>989619

They have all of this blocking shit because attacks required them to have it.

If there's a conspiracy, it's with weev types that commit the attacks.

suckless sic can connect to freenode just fine. You can do it from a Starbucks, with a throwaway email. Or you could buy a vps. You could also drop letters in mailboxes and wait for some other hacker to pass along your message.

>>989610 (OP)

irssi supports libressl, though.

>>989619

Feel free to develop your own secure, anon, foss comm software. Watch it get filled with the aforementioned pedos, and then see how you respond when you start getting attacked for facilitating those exchanges.

>irssi

>weechat

>bad

What the fuck? Half of the clients in that list are fine.

weechat is fine

freenode is a shit network, don't use it

>>989719

Irssi is fine if you set it up right.

<"irc/core" = {

< ctcp_userinfo_reply = " ";

< ctcp_version_reply = " ";

<};

Null out other ctcp replies with a space too if you want, or fake info, but those two give the most information, and one of the ctcp relies is needed to negotiate SASL I think. Also null your hostname and real_name with a space otherwise it defaults to info from your OS.

>>989615

That spambot pedo thing was a hoak.

>>989610 (OP)

freenode admins are incompetent

>>989726

I spent some time on freenode recently and it was literally overrun by spambots

>>989615

A lot of FSF projects rely on freenode to communicate. I simple wont use them if they are in freenode. It has nothing to do with the nasty shit you’re talking about.

>>989619

>I am more concerned about free and open source software devs being able to communicate anonymously

Most don't care about being anonymous.If they did they wouldn't be using irc in the 1st place.

They want to get credit for their work. They want to be able to put a project on their resume. They want the upboats.

>>989632

>>989725

IRSSI might "support" it but when you install with latest libressl from openbsd 6.4 using gcc 7.2.0 and GNU gold linker

network-openssl.c:51:12: error: static declaration of ‘X509_STORE_up_ref’ follows non-static declaration

Maybe the download is different for openbsd then it is for your gentoo install. But it shouldn't if you git it from the source repo. Mind you the fix for above is simple, use two different function names for the local variable and the global one, but if the devs can't be bothered to fix this simple thing before releasing their software then why should I read the rest of the source code and install it to see if its trustworthy?

If you had read the OP you would see that dronebl blocks almost all socks4/5 proxies that aren't state/government approved.

>>989629

You can defeat DDOS'ers via sane firewall configurations. Stop making excuses for the bad practices the community of irc devs have, such as using google capcha instead of something like what 8ch has for static capcha.

>>989636

If you had read OP you would see tox already exists.

>>989755

>They want the upboats.

Go on and do fully anonymous development, then.

Not pseudonymous, anonymous: as in, no one can tell two actions (pull requests, merges, releases) were made by the same individual.

Pro tip: it's almost impossible, and gives no significant benefit in most cases.

>>989809

>Go on and do fully anonymous development, then.

Why? I am not saying they should. I am saying they don't care about anonymous chatting because they DON'T want to be anonymous. Building a reputation and getting your name out there is the reason a lot of OSS devs do what they do. You can't get that job at Redhat/google/NSA if you can't point to projects you have contributed to. You can't show up on the mailing list and wave your big E-Dick around if your not in the core of some big project. If they cared about being anonymous they wouldn't be on IRC or use in the clear mailing lists with their employer issued email address in the 1st place.

Also end users want to be able to trust a person because 99.99% wont be able to audit the code themselves. They won't trust something running as root signed by "anonymous" but they will blindly trust something signed by the likes of Theo de Raadt. Why? Because of Reputation. Can't build that being anonomouse.

>>989784

If you don't like how freetardnode does something then don't use it. If you can't be bothered to read the source of crappy client then don't use it. No one owes you anything.

Welcome to a gazzilion years ago. IRC fucking hate proxies. Get yourself a fucking bouncer n00b.

anyways, why don't we share some good networks then? I really want to know new ones

>>989820

>I am saying they don't care about anonymous chatting because they DON'T want to be anonymous.

I am saying that, whether they care or not, anon chatting has too many disadvantages in other areas for them to adopt it.

I'm only on QuakeNet and I exclusively use it for gaming, but I saw previously there wasn't a requirement for an account to use +x. You'd get something like username@region.region.cloak.

>>989964

+ vs something like username@username.users.quakenet.org if you auth'd.

>>989820

only slaves gain reputation by doing free work in a system built against them from the ground up.

Just look what happened to Terry. He releases templeOS 5 years ago, becomes too famous in my opinion, and it all goes downhill from there.

>>990661

Terry didn't build an OS to get reputation. In fact, he's less of a slave than nearly everyone else who depends on corporations and people to write OS and software for them, with CoCks all over the place.

>>989964

Do you like quake?

Have you taken http://oxwugzccvk3dk6tj.onion/lv/res/412.html

( http://8ch.net/lv/res/412.html )

for a spin?

>>989636

yet another evidence that pedos ruin everything ;_;

>>990666

This, Satan is right

>>989610 (OP)

Ok settle down autist. Would you run an IRC net that fucking big and allow connections from proxies? Freenode is massive, and there are a lot of important development channels there. You can't have people spamming on a mass scale and making shit difficult to moderate. You can request a host mask and auth before joining a channel. Don't cry so hard next time.

>>990666

>he's less of a slave than nearly everyone else

Imagine working hard all your life to get an electrical engineering degree, then working for a soulless corporation like ticket master who fucks you over and breaks you.

I imagine the drive to create TempleOS was borne out of the need to show the world that something pure can still be created in this world.

>>989809

Why is it impossible? Have you tried this and have a list of problems, or are you just hypothesizing? The main issue I could see is that you would have multiple heads, and it might be hard create a patch for every single one. But this is a problem that solves itself, because people would be interested in keeping their branch as similar to more popular branches as possible to receive these fixes and features.
