Freenode has put redirects in place on >325 channels bridged to Matrix. The bridge doesn't follow redirects so you'll have to manually rejoin the new address if needed. Tell us in #irc:http://matrix.org if your channel is stuck. We're setting up the @liberachat@twitter.com bridge asap.

andrew lee just seized over 700 channels on freenode because they mentioned libera.chat in their topic.

This includes projects like openbsd, wikimedia, FOSDEM, etc.

https://archive.is/uHw1g shows 720 channels that match what is being checked.

Heads up that since 12:30 UTC, the http://matrix.org synapse has been running 2 sharded event persister workers: the 1st time we've ever split the job of DB writing across multiple workers! CPU is reassuringly halved & solves one of the big remaining bottlenecks in Synapse.
