IRC chatroom
IRC is the main way to contact Fedfree; that is to say, the group of people working on the website itself, and the (minimal) infrastructure provided. The movement is loose and free by definition, with no central leadership except those who lead the various projects abiding by Fedfree philosophy.
Join #fedfree on Libera IRC.
