lemmy.fmhy.ml is gone [update from the team] - sh.itjust.works

An update: - fmhy.ml [http://fmhy.ml] is gone, due to the ongoing fiasco with mali government taking all their .ml domains back - As such, lemmy.fmhy.ml [http://lemmy.fmhy.ml] is also gone, we are currently exploring ways to refederate (or somehow restart federation entirely) without breaking anything substantial - We have backups, so don’t worry about data loss (you can view them on other instances anyway) Currently, we have fmhy.net [http://fmhy.net] and are exploring options to somehow migrate, thank you for your patience.

glad to see them not go down the vlemmy path

Damn, lemmy.zip, eh? If that instance is public, I don’t see that being a good thing.

Tons of businesses, people, etc, are all banning .zip and .mov TLDs for security purposes. I’ve personally banned all those domains from my network as well.

Bold move.

i don’t doubt there have been a lot of cases of those tlds used for scams but i haven’t been negatively effected by this instances domain name.

feel free to read the discussion about it here though

Maybe hosting communities here isn't a good idea after all - Lemmy.zip

After all, don’t many platforms (or heck, browsers) render .zip URLs nonfunctional due to security concerns? Meaning our community.lemmy.zip links may not automatically hyperlink when we want them to, or it may trigger security risk popups. Whoops. Feel free to correct me.

I can’t open that link because I block .zip domains lol
