Yeah, some people really fucking hate .ml folks, and I've even heard people shit talk sh.itjust.works.
Also, hexbear was a thing.
They just hate we're right all the time.
They hate us cuz they aint us ๐คท
Hexbear still is a thing, not sure what you're referring to.
Hexbear.net doesn't seem to exist anymore?
It redirects to chapo.chat, there are some domain shenanigans going on but the people are still there and actively posting.
That's new, it wasn't doing that before. That's going to cause a failure to federate
For now. There were domain issues and that's being worked on, chapo.chat is a workaround.
Sure but there's no federation unless you use the original domain
They're defederated on .world and probably some other lib instances. I moved to ml because I didn't like the vibe on world, especially their rabid obsession with "tankies"
I left once they started curating & collating lists of known prolific tankies so that they could share them amongst each other to tag each one every time they encountered them on Lemmy.
Hexbear.net doesn't seem to be registered anymore
It redirects to chapo.chat for me but still has banners and posts that call it hexbear
They lost their domain and federation went with it for now, until they get a new domain
That will break federation
Yea but that was always the case. I am asking why they spoke of Hexbear as though it no longer exists.
Apparently as another poster pointed out hexbear.net isn't there, or rather it redirects to chapo.chat when I checked it just now. No idea why they'd think that means it's dead though. I was just pointing out the defederation as a possible source of their confusion.
literally I just chose this instance because I like the seal, I hate tribalism I just wanted a cute seal ๐ญ๐ญ
I chose it because shit never just works - and I'm a techie person.
Same, brother.
