Do with this information what you will, but it's at least kinda funny that the site is now segregated across tech nerddom lines.

Or you're a turbonerd and click "view source," see the emoji name, and laugh at the memory of what it looked like

Everything's working normal for me and I changed nothing

[–] FunkyStuff@hexbear.net 12 points 3 weeks ago

Well yeah but you're dirt owl

Also that's probably just because of things being cached in the device you're using ATM, but eventually it will expire and it'll all be "visit hexbear" images.

Once your DNS cache flushes it will stop working. Just happened to me.

Everything works fine for me on Jerboa and an ML account.

Truly I am one of the privileged few

The true nerds are the ones who were already running PiHole on their home LAN so they just had to add a custom DNS entry and now HexBear works on all of our devices, plus ad blocking

I really need to get around to setting that up

[–] MarmiteLover123@hexbear.net 7 points 3 weeks ago

Shhh don't tell them that we exist!

Only like a third of the emojis work properly with hosts file changed. Not sure what the difference between working and non-working images is. I cleared my cache.

How do I do this? I did the fix mentioned in the pinned thread for the ip or w/e to connect to dot chat

[–] FunkyStuff@hexbear.net 7 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Are you on Windows? On Linux changing the hosts file worked just fine for me.

[–] SorosFootSoldier@hexbear.net 8 points 3 weeks ago

Yeah on winblows

[–] Aquilae@hexbear.net 9 points 3 weeks ago

I have no idea what's going on and everything's working fine as usual for me on firefox shrug-outta-hecks
