#linux-amlogic IRC channel moving to Libera.Chat

Hi All,

Following the backslash and hostile takover of hundreds of channels, we don't trust anymore Freenode to serve
our community #linux-amlogic IRC channel.

Since these events, most of the users connected on the channel moved to #linux-amlogic on the new Libera.Chat server,
and it seems to be the best decision to only keep the Libera.Chat channel.

The OFTC and Freenode channels will be kept registered but with the +m flags (moderated: only ops and voiced can speak) to guide people
to the Libera.Chat network with the proper information in the topic (Freenode topic will only have a link to the wiki to avoid another hostile takeover).

The whitequark irc logger will (hopefully) be moved shortly to this new Libera.Chat network, and hopefully this event will be behind us...

Neil
