BarterClubWelp that answers a lot of why all .ml are down
hitagiOut of curiosity, other than fmhy.ml, lemmy.ml, and lemmygrad,ml, what other Lemmy instances were using .ml domains? Also, how are the latter two still running but fmhy.ml isn’t?
NOT_RICKWhy are so many instances using .ml anyway?
𝔊𝔦𝔫𝔧𝔲𝔱𝔰𝔲AFAIK, lemmy.ml and lemmygrad.ml use it because the ml can also stand for “Marxist-Leninist”, and the two primary maintainers of Lemmy are Marxist-Leninists . Not sure about the others though.
Dr. MooseThat’s not true at all. ML was used as an idiological choice as it’s the only free TLD you can get and you should not have to pay for a domain name as per Lemmy’s creators ideology.
That’s not true. There are a few other free TLDs. I think five total?
