  I have a couple thousand I can throw at this.

  Least I can do is run up the price a bit from the $305 it’s at now…

    There’s no better person to own the domain than you, imo

      I just want to buy it and sell it back to them at a profit so I can teach them a little bit about capitalism.

  Trolling aside, if the winner sets up SSL certs they could probably phish some reused passwords from HexBear users trying to login.

    I’m confused, hating Kissinger is not a tankie thing?

      Yeah, he’s a piece of shit. I was trying to think of something they wouldn’t like, even ironically.

    Tankies != Communists. Tankies = Authoritarian “communists”

      In theory, you’re right. In theory, practice matches theory; in practice, it doesn’t.

      Is there a functioning communist state, anywhere in the world, that isn’t also an authoritarian state, or effectively a dictatorship? Has there ever been one?

      The only functioning communist communities I’m aware of were the communes in California, nearly all of which have died out, collapsed, or otherwise fallen apart. I think there are still a few surviving ones, but community populations have always numbered in the dozens, and usually fewer.

  I must not understand it properly, how was the instance functioning during the grace period for the domain? I was under the understanding that the grace period still had the domain name disabled it’s just the owner had the ability to renew it still

  then once the grace period ended then it hit redemption period where it’s auctioned.

  If the domain expired 1/12, how was hexbear functioning for the last month(or was it not and I just didn’t notice cause I don’t interact with it)

    still had the domain name disabled it’s just the owner had the ability to renew it still

    There’s no set rule, every registrar can handle it differently, some don’t even bother to change the configuration at all until it’s actually been resold

    There’s also caching, the underlying servers are still responding to their raw IP addresses, DNS and registrars just tie the name to the IP address and then your device uses that IP address. Once you’ve been to a site your device (or firewall/router) will have that IP address/name cached and won’t look it up again for awhile until the cache entry expires

    Lemmy federation can also be weird, it’s not unheard of for some instances to take days to catch-up on federated posts from certain other instances.

    Startrek.website for example was just having a week long federation problem where they weren’t getting external posts, even when an external user made a post directly to a comm on their instance

      So I went to a little bit of a deep dive regarding this, they do require interrupting DNS as part of their Redemption grace period. Furthermore I went into the heck spare website and their current header indicates that despite the fact that it’s in current auction the current owner can still sign in and redeem the domain. Which makes me think that they’re running a more gracious rgp then what is to be expected. So that being said they could just be placing bids on a domain that won’t actually sell.

      Being said though apparently according to other comments the infrastructure maintainer of hexpere has been a wall for a while so it’s entirely possible that they just won’t notice it that it will transfer

      no, i didn’t, there’s a fair few communities there i’m in, and it’d be a shame to lose them.

  • cm0002@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago

    Hexbear infrastructure admin went MIA and their domain renewal lapsed, someone snatched it up and sent it to auction
