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 !HexbearEmbassy@lemmygrad.ml for updates. I miss them too.

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?

lol you missed a good one

Hexbear had an, uh, incident

I also miss our dope-ass bear shaped comrades 🥺

I hope they manage to refederate soon.
