I can only agree. OFTC is there for almost equally long as 
FreeNode, and some popular projects picked it for their official 
IRC channels (GCC, Debian, Ceph, OpenJDK, FLTK, etc). I have 
created D channel on OFTC 15 years ago and there are few people 
who are on both networks all the time. It makes more sense to me 
to move to a rock-solid network that exists for over 2 decades, 
than to a new network that still needs to be tested.

PS. D would not be the only channel to move to OFTC, there are 
many that already did or plan to.
