@moiety 1998, just after Ops Gregor g-lined a wildcard TLD.

@moiety absolutely positively not (as far as I know)

@djsundog @moiety Even in 1998 there were several separate IRC networks, so if all of IRC ever went down it was much earlier (80's?)

@moiety mmm I guess .... sometime in the 1980s when there was only 1 or 2 servers?

@moiety @ajroach42 My Matrix server is down because I've been too lazy to get it back up, and even that sure doesn't affect the rest of that decentralized, federated network!
