Up until now our main means of communication outside the site during e.g. downtime has been via our Twitter account. Given @hexbear@matapacos.dog.

If you’re on Mastodon already, please give us a follow! And if you’re not, you should sign up! https://toots.matapacos.dog is an instance hosted by our very own @PorkrollPosadist@hexbear.net. See you on Mastodon folks 😎

Is it possible to see updates from a hexbear account now that we’re federated?

For now, Mastodon -> Lemmy Federation is basically just one way. Masto accounts can follow Lemmy users and communities with comments and posts, but all Lemmy users can do is interact with those. There don’t seem to be plans to change that (unlike Kbin, which does link aggregator and microblogger on the same Fedi platform).

Given that it’s mostly used for communicating about active site outages, this doesn’t seem that important anyhow, but yeah @jack is correct. Would be neat in principle though, if not for this specific acct.

We’re supposed to be able to, but it only seems to be working sporadically.

If you have any trouble signing up, contact me either on Matrix or send me a DM. A handful of mail providers (notably iCloud and Tutanota) appear to use overzealous block-lists which block the whole IP range.

An account is not necessary to view public posts though.
