Just add the following line to your host file and add an override to your DNS:

37.187.73.130 hexbear.net

Problem solved, this is how we did it in 1985.

    This won't work in the fediverse. Sure you'll be able to reach hexbear but no fediverse server would be able to federate content into it.

    Is Hexbear even federated with anything?

    You're on one of the many instances Hexbear is federated with. It's more that a few of the larger instances like .world are defederated.

    so that IP resolves to https://chapo.chat/ but it uses the Hexbear.net's resources?

    oh now I understand...
