I created IRC channel #opensource-malaysia on libera.chat (which is run by a Swedish non-profit organisation), you may access it via IRC or MATRIX (both bridged each others).
Honestly more suggesting you to use matrix client because of:
- if you are disconnect, you still can see the previous msg, it work like IRC bouncer.
- no need to get cloak, it cloaked for you (if you going to use irc, don,t worry because libera can give you free cloak)
- you can quote msg, send file, send image, send emoji easier
- no need to use IRC port range (some place blocked this ports range)
- more to add, but i let you explore it
