    I’m glad hexbear’s back, but I’m way out of the loop on this one. Re-federation? Like they were defederated? The most recent thing I know was them losing the domain, and I’ve honestly just been waiting for them to come back with a new one.

    Can someone please summarize whatever went down for those of us who missed it?

      We fumbled our domain for a bit and got it back, but had federation turned off for a little while to make sure the situation was over. If we didn’t get it back, we were gonna swap to a different domain, but thats no longer needed.

        Oh awesome, so hexbear’s back fr then? Does that mean old hexbear posts will federate back onto other instances, or are those still gone?

        Either way, glad to see you dudes back and thanks for the update!

          I’m assuming all of it works, even posts made while we were gone. You should be able to navigate to any of our comms and see everything now.
