We will be down for ~30 mins. If you can't get in after an hour, check our Mastodon or twitter for updates, or try force refresh, clearing cache, etc.

EDIT: doing another quick hotpatch. You may see some interruptions

    People should be aware that there are some pretty solid lemmy 3rd party clients that now work with hexbear post-update that you should try out.

    Android:

    • Liftoff (Something is bugged here right now- check out the two below)
    • Jerboa
    • Connect

    If some of the iOS users here could chime in I'd appreciate it.

      Memmy for Lemmy on iOS is rapidly becoming the spiritual successor to Apollo. It's good.

          I'd recommend giving them both a shot and see which one you end up liking more

        Yeah it’s familiar for me since I used to use Apollo. A fair amount of bugginess still though, and some design choices I really dislike, but overall it’s very good. Haven’t tried Mlem yet.

        1. From within Jerboa click the hamburger (3-line) menu in the top left.
        2. Either click where it says "Anonymous" or on your current account if you have accounts on other instances.
        3. Click "Add Account"
        4. In the instance form- type hexbear.net
        5. Fill in user/pass
        6. Login

        The www. part is required because of some bug somewhere. That's probably what issue most people were having.

        Let me know if you're still having issues after this.

      Using Jerboa here since Liftoff doesn't work, it seems to drop the www part so it isn't redirecting correctly on their end and throws an 301 error.

        if the dev just used the URL as entered it should work lol. trying to be helpful like that always breaks some edge case like hexbear where www. is the main domain and hexbear.net is a redirect.

      Liftoff unfortunately is still not working for me. Posting this from Summit which also feels pretty RIF.

        Huh, that's weird. It worked on test.hexbear for me but not on the main site now.

          I may not even care though because Summit is looking extremely good and feature rich so far. Though I don't know if it can do custom emojis.

          if babushkot above is to be believed it seems to be stripping the www. off of the provided domain name. dev probably hardcoded that to be "helpful".
