I never stopped using irc (I know I'm old). There is matrix to irc connectors that are awesome. One of the benefits of open source is a lot of the protocols work well together.
Can you recommend any IRC channels for techies please? I like infosec, Linux, and Mac topics but I can't find any communities that aren't turbo-clicky or dead. Most channels I've found are like ham radio: a bunch of old grumpy people ragchewing. I'd like an actual conversation I can contribute to.
Not Rizon - Linux. I asked them a noob question and they banned me. Kind of irked me because I was just asking for help or opinion. I don't even remember what I asked.
ah, that vintage linux community experience.
"RTFM" but the manual has been out of date for years? Hell yeah keep it old school.
I'd like to know as well. I'd love to join a good community or older techies.
