There is a lot of alarmist stuff going around about .io ccTLD being "retired", fedi instances that use it having to move, etc. 👀
Keep calm. Here's the one thing you need to know about this right now:
👉 Even if .io ever gets "retired", it will take *years* for this to affect already delegated .io domains in any way at all.
I cannot stress this enough, we are talking years if not decades.
Soviet Union dissolved 33 years ago, but .su domains still resolve.
Deep breaths.
Carry on.

If you depend on a company to host, keep, or own something for you, know that there are only three ways this goes:
* company fails and "your" thing is gone,
* company succeeds and "your" thing becomes your leash as they milk then flense you in fees or privacy or both, or
* best case: "thing"s aren't valuable, the company stumbles along in mediocrity, and "your" thing stays "safe" in incompetent hands.
If you find yourself hoping your vendor isn't successful, that's a red flag.
It's syllabus time! Did you know that my coauthors and I have put out a (free) supplement for anyone who wants to add one day on design patents to their IP class:

We also have a full (also free) Patents book, available at: https://patentlawcasebook.com
I can’t stop thinking about how half the voters in America belong to a party where the front runner is facing 78 felonies and could be convicted before the election while the second place guy is running on a record of how racist (slavery actually taught slaves skills) and transphobic (I’m at war with Disney for being LGBTQ friendly) he is.
We can’t even pretend Republicans are a serious party. No meaningful policy initiatives, just cruelty and hate and selfishness masquerading as virtues.
