Comment on Welp that answers a lot of why all .ml are down

  It can also definitely stand for Machine Learning which is the first thing that comes to my mind

    Yes but lemmy has nothing to do with Machine Learning.

  • gelberhut@lemdro.id ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

    Yes, but as discussed several times here and there Lemmy Devs are pro china and anti USA and they admin lemmy.lm. in this case LM stays for marksism Leninism.

    Hey now, what’s with all the logic and stuff. We only allowing jumping to conclusions around these parts, you should know better than that.

      It’s not jumping to conclusions; it’s actually pretty well-known. The devs and their instance are very open about being Marxist-Leninists.

      I don’t see how machine learning is related to Lemmy in any way

        Okay, fair enough. So…we getting back to Lemmy now?

  I’m going to have to make a copy paste for this:

  .ml stands for Mali.

  .ee stands for Estonia.

  .tv stands for Tuvalu

  Just like .ca stands for Canada.

    this is technically true, but it’s not why lemmygrad, ran by full on communists, chose the .ml tld

    source

    • kautau@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

      Which ironically, is now failing due to the fault of those in power of that TLD. The festive raw needs to be careful with tld’s they choose. ICAAN exists, but it’s obvious that some domain power is delegated and therefore safer TLDs should be chosen

        Honestly this might be an unpopular opinion, but I think this literally down to bad luck and this is nothing we have to be prepare for anymore than any other host. Which is an incredibly small amount. It’s not like this shit happens often as there would be a lot of news coverage around it considering the amount of big companies affected, and I frankly think this is very low on the list of priorities of things that lemmy has to keep in mind or address at some point.

      Stalinists, not communism

        It’s funny you’re getting down votes for this. ML was literally created as the official formulation of Marxism & Leninism for the USSR by Stalin.

      .ml was the main Lemmy before .world Most communities were there.

      I’m surprised they didn’t use the .su Soviet Union Top Level Domain.

    Yes, it stands for Mali, no, it's not why lemmygrad used the domain name. Do you think all the services like Grammarly and Bitly are all Libyan services as well? Because I've got news that may just blow your mind.

    Please stop copy-pasting ignorance.

• drmoose@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

  That’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.

  • sciawp@lemm.ee ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

    That’s not true. There are a few other free TLDs. I think five total?
