OFTC is very good, IMO. It's been reliable, well managed, provides a good selection of services, provides a web client for anyone not particularly familiar with IRC clients,  and supports SSL + CertFP in addition to standard auth mechanisms.

Dear all,

there have been recent reports of a hostile takeover of the freenode
service, as described in
https://gist.github.com/joepie91/df80d8d36cd9d1bde46ba018af497409

The Yocto Project should verify these reports and take the necessary
actions, in order to protect its users.

Thanks for your email. We are aware, and have started to look into that. 

It looks like some open source communities have started to move to https://www.oftc.net/ or https://libera.chat/.. If anyone wants to bring any insights or recommendations... feel free!
