Libera.chat - is it bad?

[monsieur]

Hey, I've recently seen some negative comments regarding libera.chat owners.
Quite a few people mentioned they got banned there, or that libera.chat owners are real faggots.

I've also found this topic: https://matrix.org/blog/2023/07/deportal...bera-chat/

Any information and more details regarding the bad experiences with libera are appreciated!

I personally think that this network is a bad energy! But yeah.. Kind of reminds me of situation when I was fresh in linux world and while I had no idea about existence of init systems, I found several websites boykotting systemd!
And now some people have similar attitudes towards libera.chat network, particularly their owners!

but why is that exactly?! Please share some more information!

Thanks \(^^)/

Wow mate, so here's first clue

On 2021-05-22, I received a tip-off that the topic of the Freenode channel ##hntop (which I had parted) had had its topic changed back. I rejoined the channel to confirm this. The following changes had taken place:

the topic had been changed back to the previous topic;
rasengan had operator status, which I never authorized or intended;
I no longer had operator status;
egobot had been replaced with rasengan's bot which he previously used in his channel ##hnnew, humblebot, which had voice.

Examination of ChanServ records also reveals that I am no longer the founder of the channel:
