   It has been so long since I used my #Freenode #IRC logon directly (as distinct from the one that #Matrix created for me) that it is apparently closed.
   
   I was surprised to find that I didn't even have an IRC client installed on this laptop.
   
   I guess that is a sign that I am free to move to LiberaChat ... but I may just wait until #Matrix has bridging to that network and then allow it to create an account for me.

     On the other hand, #Matrix's bridge to #Freenode seems to powercycle at least once per day, resulting in me being kicked out of rooms unless I identify to NickServ quickly enough. (If the #IRC side kicks you, the Matrix side obliges ... and the Element client does not even save that room so you can rejoin easily after you identify.
     
     I dislike rejoining "#freenode_#roomname:matrix.org" so frequently. Maybe I should set up a bouncer and use and IRC client.
