Help and native clients

This HTML edition supports links and ordinary forms. Cookies are needed for sign-in, but scripts are not. Use a native IRC client for live chat, and a newsreader if you prefer NNTP.

Direct IRC

irc.newseptember.org:6697 over TLS.

Use SASL PLAIN with your username and an IRC-scoped native credential (preferred), or your account password. A Soju app password does not work here.

/server add september-direct irc.newseptember.org/6697 -tls
/set irc.server.september-direct.sasl_mechanism plain
/set irc.server.september-direct.sasl_username YOUR_USERNAME
/set irc.server.september-direct.sasl_password YOUR_SCOPED_CREDENTIAL
/connect september-direct

Persistent Soju bouncer

irc.newseptember.org:6698 over TLS.

Generate a chat app password under Native chat. Use that app password, not the account password. Device usernames use username@device.

/server add september-bouncer irc.newseptember.org/6698 -tls
/set irc.server.september-bouncer.sasl_mechanism plain
/set irc.server.september-bouncer.sasl_username YOUR_USERNAME
/set irc.server.september-bouncer.sasl_password YOUR_SCOPED_CREDENTIAL
/connect september-bouncer

Usenet

news.newseptember.org:563 over TLS. Use an NNTP-scoped credential or your account credentials where supported. Public reading follows community visibility; posting follows admission and membership.
