Hexbear has a bit over 20 thousand users, similar to Lemmy. Both Lemmy and Hexbear would benefit from federation. So, what’s missing?

    Damn what a shame… Having Hexbear as part of the community would give us a real leg up.

    I’d really like to spin up a lemmy instance, but it’s got a higher bar to entry than expected.

    They are based on a fork of lemmy that added features that made it incompatible with lemmy. However, there is an active body of work taking place to bring it back to lemmy compatability and allow federation to take place again.

    I’m not sure where that work is at though
