Projects and channels that have decided to leave Freenode

This is an ongoing list of projects and channels that have decided to permanently move out of Freenode to https://libera.chat (unless stated otherwise). Please open an issue, PR or PM me on IRC (siraben) if there's additions or corrections, such as adding citation links.

Note: I can only accept additional projects and channels to the list accompanied with a citation, which can be (but is not limited to): an official announcement, wiki page, git commit, IRC log, social media post by project lead/official account, etc.
