Excellent, really glad that was able to get resolved. We've had to deal with domain name issues here too, its an extremely stressful experience that I wouldn't wish on my worst enemy.
Letting the domain name expire was a pretty good bit, still glad to see it's been worked out.
Comment buried the lede:
We will be enabling federation after redirecting chapo.chat, hexbear.chat, etc. to hexbear.net
Edit to add: chapo.chat is currently broken, which may confuse users who’d been told not to go to hexbear.net anymore.
$ curl -I --no-progress-meter https://hexbear.chat/ 2>&1 | head -n1
curl: (60) SSL: no alternative certificate subject name matches target host name 'hexbear.chat'
$ curl -skI https://hexbear.chat/ | head -n1

apologies i forget that pinned comments / speak as moderator aren't as clear i'll edit the original post
do we know yet when re-federation will happen?
during the domain change new accounts created a new table in the database and are associated with @chapo.chat so we are cleaning that up and doing some security-oriented tasks before re-federation
Should be today, or soon.
The "nothing ever happens" gang stays winning, happy to see federation will resume soon. More Leftists federated is a good thing.
On the upside, they'll be contained into one place to easily avoid.
please stay on your conservative echo-chamber. makes the transphobes contained and easier to avoid
