THEY say you should walk the walk, not just talk the talk. This is why, over time, we're increasingly self-sufficient on the Internet and we no longer rely on the Web either (we use 4 Internet protocols, not just the World Wide Web/HTTP/S).

"This is why, over time, we're increasingly self-sufficient on the Internet and we no longer rely on the Web either (we use 4 Internet protocols, not just the World Wide Web/HTTP/S)."The video above explains what we posted here early in the morning, notably the parts about choosing to self-host IRC and why it is so important. It would be nice to see thousands more sites and projects doing the same thing. At a later date we might share some technical details and give examples (like configuration files) detailing the process, including the setup of bridges to other networks for 'legacy' purposes (staying connected to older networks for redundancy/failsafe and backward compatibility amid soft transition). ⬆
