Hello fellow FOSS folk! As you might know, we rely on donations to keep Libera.Chat running.

In this regard we have great news today: We partnered up with FreeWear.org to distribute official Libera.Chat merch. So if you want to donate to us and get fancy gear in return, this is a great opportunity. You can buy cool t-shirts and hoodies, more items will arrive later. For every item sold, we get a donation. Details are at https://libera.chat/news/freewear-libera-merch and our shop is at https://www.freewear.org/Libera.Chat. Enjoy!

Matrix's IRC bridge software has a high-severity vulnerability that affects Matrix rooms that are bridged to IRC.

Libera.Chat have mitigated what we can, but bridge operators must upgrade to the newest version.

This does not have any impact on IRC or IRC users - a courtesy toot for those who may need to upgrade.

@matrix after a few days broken, @matrix appear to have restarted the IRC bridge they operate. The Matrix/Libera link should be restored for now.

Problems using Matrix on Libera.Chat have been reported over recent days, impacting projects. The @matrix bridge is one-way in some rooms & message delivery can't be guaranteed. We have communicated to EMS on this matter and hope they have a resolution ASAP.
