Searching for IRC channels of providers

[wlanboy]

After rediscovering mailbox systems I also try to reflate my IRC activities.

My current list:

• ObsidianIRC.net
  #BlueVM
  #HostUS
• Freenode.net
  #vpsboard
  #lowendbox

So what vps related IRC channels are available?

Any net/chan I should add?

 

[Magiobiwan]

BuyVM:

Channel: #frantech 
Network: irc.frantech.ca

 

[MannDude]

irc.freenode.net // #raspberrypi , #debian

Neither are particularly related to VPSes or providers, but still useful if you have a Raspberry Pi or use Debian.

Technically there's a few out there. 

RamNode has one on esper.net I believe? (#ramnode at irc.esper.net I think). 

There's a few others on FreeNode

#backupsy

#CloudShard

#DigitalOcean

#unixio (not a provider but still where a few people hang out)

All I can think of off the top of my head.

The ones I know of not already mentioned:

On freenode: #CrownCloud, #edisat, #iniz, #kgovps, #lfcvps, #rethinkvps. Those ones range from pretty quiet to dead.

On irc.staticbox.net: #tortoiselabs.

On irc.oftc.net: #linode.

RamNode has one on esper.net I believe? (#ramnode at irc.esper.net I think). 

It moved to #ramnode on irc.netchat.io.

irc.freenode.net

#crissic

This is for Crissic Solutions run by SkylarM.

I'm not technically a VPS provider, but my channel is also run on freenode at #usaccess

We are considering moving #tortoiselabs to freenode, actually.

You should.

Then I'll chill there.  

 

[wlanboy]

BuyVM:

Channel: #frantech 

Network: irc.frantech.ca

Joined the network.

You should.

Then I'll chill there.  

Me too.

 

[wlanboy]

It moved to #ramnode on irc.netchat.io.

Did not see it. Added the network too.

Unless I am typing #cloudshark (funny image anyway) there is not a #cloudshard chan on freenode.

huh. Well you're correct.   I don't know why but it doesn't seem to be there.  

 

[wlanboy]

Yup, no cloudshard, no backupsy.

Looks like some providers abandoned their channels.

 

[HalfEatenPie]

Oh I see what mistake i made

I meant

#crowncloud (not Cloudshard)

#backupsy

Backupsy is still there wlanboy  

 

[bauhaus]

Yep #backupsy is still there.

 

[wlanboy]

Yep #backupsy is still there.

You're right.

Also also found:

• #fapvps
• #cloudservers (rackspace)

 

[Wintereise]

#queryfoundry @ freenode for companies under the qf brand (i.e: mainly Cloud Shards for now)

Do you find it necessary that a provider has an IRC Channel?

Not really. I sometimes hop on #frantech if I've got a quick question and don't want to bug Fran on Skype or something.
