Oragono comes with two separate config files - default.yaml and traditional.yaml.

These two config files run in vastly different ways: - traditional.yaml runs similarly to traditional IRC servers where accounts are separate from nicknames, you can be connected to the server with a few separate clients and will have a few separate nicknames. - default.yaml is a new way of working with IRC. You only have one nickname, you can’t change your nickname to anything but your account name, and once you register an account you must use SASL to use that nickname.

… describe the two methods of working here in more detail. in a VERY SIMPLE WAY so that we can link this page when users want to use Oragono …
