If anything, it should be a malaysian .my TLD so it just ends up being lem.my instead, but seeing as the entire point of the Fediverse is that there's no one central authority figure, this whole thing seems silly. ๐Ÿคฃ

Actually, I thought about getting lem.my and make an instance with it (there are ways to rent it even if you don't live in malaysia and it's not too expensive) but tbh I think websitename.com would be the better option because it's the most common format.

Yeah, but when did 'most common' matter to a social network trying to push a totally different paradigm of federation?

Not a bad idea, however I would prefer https://lemmyverse.net/ if so.

Or .world! Sounds very general too ;-) You could even setup a general Mastodon server on a .world, betcha it would work!

whistles so uh, anyone here got $24,000 they don't mind giving up for the Fediverse? :D

[โ€“] ComputerSagtNein@lemm.ee 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Is that how much it would cost? How did you find out?

I looked it up on namecheap, which is where I get my domains from. It might be a different price on other sites though, not sure as I haven't checked.

eh, it would just end up overwhelmed with users like lemmy.world, lemmy.ml, and beehaw.org.
