For those that looking for info to join IRC Libera.chat I not a expert but
many hours of testing.
And I did push this out in a hurry so feel free to edit and improve.
Simple web page no install

pick and nickname. If that one is used it fill in a generic unused one or
you may try another one
keep the channel as #libera press enter and you will be in the channel. At
this point you will not be able to chat until you register your nickname so
in the bottom line enter
/msg NickServ REGISTER (your password) (your email address)
no parentheses but a space between items
you will get a email with a code to enter
/msg NickServ IDENTIFY (your password)
no parentheses but a space between items
it should ask for your emailed code enter that code and you are now
registered
enter
/join #plugaz
enter and you are now able to chat
these commands should work with most any IRC client
For weechat on a Debian system in a terminal
sudo apt-get install weechat then enter computer password
then enter weechat wait till weechat is fully open then on the bottom line
enter
/server add libera irc.libera.chat:6697 -ssl -autoconnect then
enter/connect libera then enter
/msg NickServ REGISTER (your password) (your email address)

/msg NickServ IDENTIFY (your password)
no parentheses but a space between items

I used this guide. I also used screen weechat-curses so I could move from
one computer to another
with ssh to the host then screen-dr and now I never miss a comment.
