What did you learn today? Share it with us!
We learn something new every day. This is a community dedicated to informing each other and helping to spread knowledge.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must begin with TIL. Linking to a source of info is optional, but highly recommended as it helps to spark discussion.
** Posts must be about an actual fact that you have learned, but it doesn't matter if you learned it today. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.**
Rule 2- Your post subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.
Your post subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding non-TIL posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-TIL posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
For further explanation, clarification and feedback about this rule, you may follow this link.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.
Unless included in our Whitelist for Bots, your bot will not be allowed to participate in this community. To have your bot whitelisted, please contact the moderators for a short review.

I can’t believe it, primus.sucks isn’t an active site?
Probably cause it costs at minimum like 200$ to get the domain
You are right, there is no way Primus could afford that.
As in the transformer god?
It costs like 200$, like it is extremely ridiculously overpriced.
javascript.sucks costs 2 grand for a year lol
@TheOneWithTheHair that is one of the amazing ideas concerning the new gTLDs program by ICANN. I wonder what was the original idea behind it...
There was some intense controversy behind it, same thing with .exposed (for obvious reasons). It's shitty because it's extremely overpriced, like 200$ or so for a year of registration. The company behind is quite scummy and advertises it to companies to buy it for PR purposes, so some buy it and redirect to their feedback page.
inb4 someone makes reddit.sucks redirect to reddit
Too expensive for your average memer.
Then we need the elite memers on this one
you guys know that .sucks is selling shovels, hard, right? you're not actually this stupid, are you?
What do you mean by that?
oh god we really are this stupid
who gets rich during a gold rush? these annoying cunts have found yet another way to profiteer off ur hate
Aw man, that's kinda mean. But I sort of get where you're coming from. A company owns exclusive rights to the .sucks TLD, so I guess in a way they're profiting off of hatred. I just don't really think it's that big of a deal. Like, if I'm angry at something I'm not gonna buy a domain for it... Especially since these are so expensive. Barely anyone buys domains. Seems like it's more tailored to marketing campaigns than anything.
