ChannelList
Ubuntu is adopting Matrix for chat. While many teams are moving to Matrix, some are still only present on IRC. For more information about Matrix, take a look at Getting started with Matrix. |
There are many real-time discussion channels for the Ubuntu community.
Libera.chat
As a result of a May 2021 IRC council decision, all channels have since moved to the Libera.Chat IRC network.
Please connect your IRC client to:
For non-TLS, use: irc.libera.chat, port 6667
Website: https://libera.chat/ - provides configurations suitable for most IRC clients
