LjLjoemama, if you don't want it to show, register to Libera, and then ask see the topic in #libera for how to obtain a cloak00:44
LjLalthough cloaks shouldn't be taken as guarantees of anonymity00:44
joemamaok thanks00:44
LjLhttps://libera.chat/guides/registration has instructions for registering00:44
sdfgsdfgwait00:45
sdfgsdfgthere's a ruby script that exposes your IP even if you're cloaked00:45
LjLthat's why i said it shouldn't be taken as a guarantee of anonymity00:45
LjLstill, i think the biggest holes with cloaks were fixed with the move to Libera00:45
LjLand the method i knew about to uncloak people was quite noisy and staff would notice00:46
sdfgsdfgyou can no longer ban an IP range to find IP now ?00:46
sdfgsdfgin your own chan or something00:46
LjLi think they put in some safeguards against that00:46
