Another win for the decentralized Fediverse when a government domain takeback can’t shut it down!
Mali has decided to take back .ml from people who took advantage of the free domain like fmhy.ml & maybe lemmy.ml - https://lemmy.world/post/1915581
And while it sucks for those servers & those users may have to migrate, the #Fediverse and it’s plethora of platforms continues on. 💪 💜

@WhoRoger yeah, apparently the company managing the domain, their 10 year contract is up and Mali decided not to renew and brought it in house. https://domainincite.com/28897-freenom-is-losing-another-cctld-after-collecting-military-emails
Ok so I guess the old registrar were a bunch of twats, so the gov kicked them out and in the process potentially benefits from the US mil email thing.
All while doing the typical government thing of messing things up for everybody because they don’t know how anything works.
Am I right?
I don’t think the email thing is connected to this. That just happened at roughly the same time.
Yea it just prevents one from searching what’s going on, because web results are filled with this.
