I followed the irssi guide on libera.chat but I am getting this error and I am not sure what to do as I have never used irc before:

either your username is wrong, or your password is wrong, or you haven't registered your email yet. did you follow this guide: https://github.com/shabble/irssi-docs/wiki/liberachat#configure-sasl-automated-log-in ?

You need to verify your email. Find the email from libera and follow the instruction in it

you need to connect to libera without VPN and from your local ISP in order to register and confirm your email

we4yhjyghf commented 2 months ago

Connecting when disconnected from vpn seems to work but this raises another question. How can I protect my ip address as I don't want it available to other people and it seems to be publicly available

ailin-nemui commented 2 months ago

after completing the nickname registration and email verification successfully, the network will protect your IP address from regular users

vague666 commented 2 months ago

(if you /join #libera-cloak once identified :) you'll be banned immediately but also cloaked)

we4yhjyghf commented 2 months ago

I tried to /join #libera-cloak and it gave me this:


          has moved off-network. The channel may be clone-infested; please consult libera network staff.

Not sure if it cloaked me nor am I sure what I'm doing
vague666 commented 2 months ago

Apparently you should be cloaked already if you are verified and identified https://libera.chat/news/autocloaking

we4yhjyghf commented 2 months ago

Okay I figured it out. After registration and verification you have to follow this: https://libera.chat/guides/irssi Didnt realize it in the beginning, thank you all so much
