If you dream about decentralized IRC and the IRC Foundation the last thing you should do is to pick a fight against a new member of the IRC ecosystem.
There is no inappropriate advertising in discussing or moving between alternative implementations in the decentralized world. You should embrace it and build on top of it, as Fediverse does. You should build bridges, build common policies, setup possibilities for easy migration between servers, come up with the agreement on reuse of the same names for the same channels and so on.
So far the only version of the "decentralization" we have seen is you trying to take full ownership of the network on your own terms fighting against competitors, and really not understanding what you are doing. This is not how it works.
I am not sure if it is even possible to repair what you have broken now, but you can still try.
This is a misleading explanation.
CentOS Stream 9 stays between RHEL 9.X and RHEL 9.X+1.
Once branched from Fedora CentOS Stream follows RHEL ABI compatibility of that specific major version and doesn't consume Fedora updates.
It is also tested together with RHEL.
