You're viewing a single thread.
Just add the following line to your host file and add an override to your DNS:
37.187.73.130 hexbear.net
Problem solved, this is how we did it in 1985.

4 0 Replyso that IP resolves to https://chapo.chat/ but it uses the Hexbear.net's resources?oh now I understand...
5 0 Replyyes that is the mirror hostname basically (they already had in the past as well).
But I'm now for example able to just visit: https://hexbear.net/communities. And yes I do believe we just reach the same server actually (more or less, maybe kept in sync manually).
