So why is .ml TLD going back to Mali taking everyone by surprise? (lemmy.world)

Was there some sort of assurance that nothing was going to happen when the contract expired, and this expectation was changed? Freenom hasn't been registering domains since Jan 1.

It's seeming a little odd to me that this is catching people with their pants down.

Very true. I had to laugh when I saw lemmygrad.com

[–] [email protected] 52 points 1 year ago (2 children)

lemmygrad.com is just a redirect to exploding-heads.com which is just another extremist instance at the other end of the spectrem.

@[email protected] fyi, the defederation list may need to be updated due to the upcoming instance migrations.

Thanks for the heads up. Looks like we'll be ok for this one from what I can tell

[–] [email protected] -4 points 1 year ago

Yeah. It still made me smile.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Oh they had to change? Do I need to re-defederate them under the new name?

[–] [email protected] 19 points 1 year ago (1 children)

lemmygrad.com is just a redirect to exploding-heads.com which is just another extremist instance at the other end of the spectrem.

According to this comment, looks like it should be defederated anyhow

That comment actually makes it look more to me like nothing needs to be done. If it's just a redirect there shouldn't be anything on activitypub for lemmygrad.com, and the Nazi instance was the first one I defederated. At least, that's how I understand it I could be wrong.
