Not really, to my understanding. Hexbear runs everything off chapo.chat which is mostly unaffected by the matrix.org issue. Obviously, don't use Element and there might be a hard fork in the future but it shouldn't be insurmountable. Matrix still remains a decent protocol despite having an uncertain future and the replacements aren't very promising. (I know polyproto was mentioned but I've seen dozens of Discord-esque chat protocols come and go, and it being a de facto personal project doesn't help.) Defederation with matrix.org might happen as well.
