Posting this because I’d think it’d be funny if Hexbear occasionally went down whenever it was cloudy outside but also because the magazine/site is cool.

it looks neat, but it completely broke darkmode for me so i’ve probably used more power viewing the site than I otherwise would have

They do. It’s enough for the site to survive the night and a few days of overcast skies but not beyond that.
