Hexbear had an, uh, incident

Surprised you haven't heard, it's a whole big thing. They lost access to their domain and shut down federation while it gets sorted out. Last I heard they have the domain back and will refederate once some other technical shit is in place. Try [email protected] for updates. I miss them too.

"Whoops!"

After losing and regaining their domain name, it’s been defederated from everyone for weeks.

They’re still ironing out refederation details: How should Hexbear federate?

How they recovered the domain? They paid the extortion bid?

[–] [email protected] 15 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Nah, they figured out some kind of appeal and host transfer

The good ending.
