Another question: who owns the domain hexbear.net, pays for the servers and such?
I remember scanning Hexbear ip and finding prometheus running on some port (i informed them on matrix and they closed it all). It's an entry level dedicated server from OVH, Sandy Bridge Xeon i think.

We currently have enough recurring monthly donations to meet the monthly server costs that host hexbear, our test server, matrix server, and cytube instance. One of the admins owns the domain, manages the liberapay/pateron and pays for the server.
chapo.chat since it was created before the site changed names
it's for mod and admin chat, mainly, but there is a public chat room that's almost never used
It's probably better that we don't know, wouldn't want them to be fucked with
I think we had a Liberapay where people could donate once but I can't find the link anymore
Kinda miss old site layout tbh
Remember when the Hexbear loading icon spinned in steps on a hexagon's edges?
Edit: nvm I found it! https://liberapay.com/hexbear, we should put this in the sidebar again
Also would be cool if someone could confirm that someone still has control over this acct, I can't remember the last time people talked about it

yes that's still the right donation link
As far as exactly who controls the accounts besides "the admin team" I doubt we'll get any info on that, for opsec reasons
The little heart at the top of the page links it but that's.... not obvious
