Yesterday was intense for everyone. Some quick updates as of last night:

  • A large amount of the sitemod team has stepped away from the project. Other comrades from the community have volunteered to pitch in and been modded.
  • Some core devs also stepped away from the project. For the time being, you should not expect any further development of new features or bug fixes as we reassess our capacity.
  • Main has been locked. No immediate plans to unlock.
  • Registration is closed and will remain so for the time being.

We 100% understand and support everyone who left yesterday and are also looking forward to the next stage of Hexbear.

We're probably not going to be making any additional announcements or formal communication until after the weekend at the earliest. Thanks.

    there is no assumption of good faith at all here

    There's a good amount and the community does a solid job.

    There are multiple private discords with the sole focus of destroying this site and that is an entire level of fucking loser I never expected to see continue this long after launch.

        I don't fucking know. If you hate what we're building, why wouldn't you just go do something else...

        I like you, want to be a sitemod? You'll either help this get rebuilt or get to party in the ashes if that doesn't work out.

          I'm already a mod of c/anarchism and I would really like to help. Y'all are the only community I really have. If you want to site mod me I'd be more than happy to volunteer. I don't WANT to be a mod especially after all the shit I've seen slung at them but I do want to ensure this place makes it through this shitstorm.

      There are multiple private discords with the sole focus of destroying this site .

      Can confirm these exist, they even have "sleeper accounts" which they created at site launch with the whole purpose of starting shit and inflaming every argument on here. I caught two of them yesterday. I don't understand what drives people to do shit like that, like ffs go outside for once.
