Same, its short and I’m used to it now… the only things it’d be worth to change to would be like .org or .com, and those are owned or incredibly expensive.
Honestly, blocking TLDs is a really dumb way of spam filtering. Pretty much all the spam/scam sites I’ve seen are on paid TLDs anyway.
Also, fuck domain flipping. I hate it when people try to sell domains at ludicrous prices. It only harms the internet as a whole and accomplishes nothing of value.
This will also hopefully solve the issue with spam filters not liking the .ml domain!
Only for the join site, not for this instance.
Still a good thing. Now people can link to the join site and then be redirected to this or any other instance!
I do really like how lemmy.ml rolls off the tongue though, not sure if I want to change that just because of some spam filters tbh.

i accidentally typed
.cominstead of.orgfor a site a few days ago and the domain name was being sat on… with a purchase price of $15,000!!! like wthThat’s someones rent for a year in some places. Truly outrageous.
i keep wondering- is ml for mainland, marxism-leninism, or something else?
It’s the domain name for the country Mali.
