I am seeing posts from https://hexbear.net/ once again. Anyone know what happened since they lost their domain name? How did they get it back?

No, porkbun is legit.
Wasn’t it sav.com or something? Pretty sure it wasn’t porkbun.
Read it was pork in another comment. a quick whois shows:

I mean a whois as of now doesn’t tell us what it was. And I remember some statement from them. Probably in their main channel(?) saying they consider switching DNS registrars…
I’m not that interested in Hexbear, so somone else has to look it up if we want a definite answer.
