So this is a man-in-the-middle attack waiting to happen isn’t it? Buy the domain, setup a reverse proxy that points to the original hexbear server IP and start logging all requests.

It's the same instance. That's just a synonymous hostname that points to the same IP address.

They didn't really move. That hostname has been a synonym for hexbear.net all along. It may have been the instance's original hostname.

Did you even read lemmy.ml’s rules?

Just done it myself with deepseek.

AI does not exist but it will ruin everything anyway

Tell me you didn’t just post a screenshot of AI slop.

Ok. If I were forced to choose between hexbear.net and reddit.world, I wouldn’t choose .world. But you do you.

Because .world's admins pre-emptively defederated from Hexbear as a “last resort” (even though, by definition, it was their “first resort”).

About a year ago: Lemmy.world Hexbear Statement

Yesterday, we received information about the planned federation by Hexbear. The announcement thread can be found here: https://www.hexbear.net/post/280770.

Defederation should only be considered as a last resort. However, based on their comments and behavior, no positive outcomes can be expected.

We’re not buying games, we’re categorizing games. Again, the game we’re playing is called “Game Categorization, the Game,” and it costs nothing to play it.

Smart move, you're playing Game Categorization, the Game for free on Steam’s dime.

"StoneToss" Tossed: Hans Kristian Graebener of Spring, TX

Comics and cartoons can be used to entertain, educate and enlighten. In the case of the right-wing web comic creator StoneToss and his eponymous cartoon, they can also be used to spread racism, antisemitism, xenophobia and anti-LGBTQ+ bigotry. Since 2017 StoneToss has been doing just that. It has an exceedingly wide presence among neo-Nazis and white nationalists. The easy-to-digest three- or four-panel comics are accessible vectors for spreading right-wing hate and, as we will show, real-world violence.

Even before StoneToss began its regular program of hateful propaganda, the creator did much the same under the name Red Panels. While many have noticed a stylistic and thematic resemblance between StoneToss and Red Panels, people have debated whether or not the two web comics could be attributed to the same creator. In this report we aim to settle this debate and give the creator an opportunity to explain his views under his real identity: Hans Kristian Graebener of Spring, Texas.
