If you don't supply more information no one is going to be able to
help you.

What is the problem?

First of all, you are misspelling "*anonnet*". That might be your
problem. Check out: [https://netsplit.de/servers/?net=AnonNet](https:/
/netsplit.de/servers/?net=AnonNet)

Also, you should start out with
[irc.anonnet.org](http://irc.anonnet.org/) for a server. I just
connected to:
[irc.anonnet.org](http://irc.anonnet.org/):6667 with almost no
delay/lag.

Hope this helps.

In the text box where you would type for chat, type:

/server [the_server_address]

then press enter on your keyboard

Substituting the_server_address for the IRC server address

I'm unable to resolve crowley.anonnet.org, but irc.anonnet.org works
(although it redirects to irc2.yukieiri.com).

Unless you want to connect specifically to crowley.anonnet.org, the
command

    /server -ssl irc.anonnet.org 6697

should work (anonnet dosn't seem to accept non-SSL connections).

In my version of Hexchat, which is Linux, the network list shows up
first. Then you click on "Add" and type "AnonNet", then press the
Enter key. Then click on "Edit...". Then click on the top entry (mine
says "newserver/6667") and add "irc.anonnet.org/6667" (without the
quotes). Then click on the white directly underneath what you just
typed. That will save it. I don't know why Hexchat makes it confusing
to save a server. Then click on "Close", and put whatever Nickname
("Nick) you want to use. Then click on "Connect" in the lower right
corner of the network list. That should work. Let me know if you have
any other questions.

im connected thank you. it seems that freenode is requiring user
logins on most channels

----------------------------------------------------------------------
PlainDave · 2020-04-21 21:01

Freenode has a nickserv, which means that you can register a nick, as
long as it's not already taken.

Crowley appears dead/nonexistent.  The irc.anonnet.org recommended
above will join you via round-robin to whatever exists; there is
ordinarily no need for you to be one server or another on a network.
