What happened to the IRC Channel?

[IWishIKnew]

It's still up and running (somehow!)...
Looks like there is #cplusplus.com on Libera...

Where is everyone?

I guess that not many people know that such a thing like 'IRC Channel' exists or how to get there.

A lot of the old regulars left for other platforms, and I imagine most who haven't been keeping up with the IRC world won't know to go to Libera instead of Freenode.

Is there a link to get there quickly? I think freenode had a way to jump right into from the web in the past. I used IRC until the freenode buyout...

Nobody's really there at the moment aside from me and four other idlers. But yes, Libera also has web chat. https://web.libera.chat/

Very correct. Also, other versions of this particular skit are non-canonical.

I dunno, "Live at the Hollywood Bowl" is pretty much canon as the TV episodes for Python-ites.
