 Everyone having issues using current OFTC. This is not a support issue.
 The problem is with OFTC blocking Tor connections. Not configuration.

 I am not positive about this situation to improve over time. Enough time
 has passed. OFTC does not seem to care/prioritize this issue enough. I
 think it's well justified to make the change.

 Ideally, the whole Tor community (Torproject, Tails, Whonix, Qubes, ...)
 would switch to a new, functional, Tor-friendly IRC network.
