Can connect with URL links, but not via config (Windows 11, Halloy v2024.14) #678

Hello,

I just downloaded Halloy and attempted to use it. Clicking an IRC URL (ex. irc://irc.snoonet.org/reddit) will connect me. I'm unable to connect to Librachat's #halloy channel, as it doesn't seem to exist if I search for it via Librachat's own site. Hence, I'm making an issue here. I've changed the channel in my config to #linux, due to this, but I'm still unable to make a connection. If I use the default config that comes with Halloy, with the only change being my username; it will not connect. It simply shows connecting to server... over and over. As a note, the config is as follows:

# Halloy config.

nickname = "Alcatraz"
server = "irc.libera.chat"
channels = ["#halloy"]

This is on Windows 11, using version Halloy 2024.14 that was installed via the winget method as noted in the documentation. I thought perhaps it was just a Windows firewall issue, so I've gone ahead and made explicit rules to allow Halloy to connect. No dice.

It's possible that this is user error, however, considering I'm using the default configuration I don't think that's the case. I also don't think it's a Windows or ISP issue, since clicking IRC URLs works without issue. Please let me know what other information I can provide to help resolve this, as it seems odd to me that I'm running into this issue.
