How to use matrix as an IRC client to join #fsci
- See this guide for freenode specific instructions
- On Matrix, open a new chat (with Riot app this is the "+" sign on the bottom right)
- Invite @oftc-irc:matrix.org to the new chat
- Say !nick <yournick>
- A request for new chat with NickServ will pop up (if not invite @_oftc_NickServ:matrix.org). Accept it and identify yourself with your OFTC password (identify <password>)
