      You joke, but it looks like they actually did manage to regain their domain. Not sure how.

          Nah, hexbear admins and users were pretty clear and unanimous from minute 1 that they’d rather have that money spent in mutual aid (go visit c/mutual_aid in Hexbear if you’re interested) than in giving money to a cyberlandlord.

      Sadly I’m afraid Hexbear doesn’t get the Xi-bux it rightly deserves, it’s even blocked by the great Chinese firewall (thought the reasons aren’t clear). I wish the left was as well funded as people claim :(
