Activity Report 2025 - Projects and Community

The projects and community team (PaC) manages the relationship between the Libera.Chat volunteer staff and projects and communities that use our network. It takes care of registrations and onboarding for projects and communities that would like to have an official representation on Libera.Chat. In addition to that, we keep up communications and good relationships both on the network and also through other channels, such as social media.

Registrations

At the end of fiscal year 2025 we had 1028 registered projects. This represents a net increase of 3 projects over the previous fiscal year. This decrease in registration activity was expected following our clear-out of the backlog during the 2024 fiscal year.

Social Media

At the time this report was written in March 2026, we had approximately 3200 followers on Mastodon and approximately 400 followers on Bluesky. We continue to use decentralized social media to promote our news posts as well as boost announcements that we believe are of particular importance to the FOSS or IRC communities.

Team Internals

The PaC team consisted of 17 members at the end of fiscal year 2025. We did not hold any formal PaC meetings during 2025, however there was much activity on our internal IRC channel.

Looking Forwards

We hope to maintain our empty backlog by promptly addressing any new registrations or other inquiries as they come in. We also intend to improve our social media reach and engagement.
