I predict this freenode/libera split will fracture many communities. There's no staking of channels so those that moved first and created them may not be the same that own the freenode channels, some users won't move, and there will be split communities with different ownership.

New freenode opers are making sure this fracturing doesn't happen by driving all of their remaining users off the network with aggressive takeovers of channels that mention libera in the topic.
