Ah, that makes sense. Thank you.
There’s one more instance for them, Lemmygrad. Only join if you truly support ML ideology, otherwise just stay in your instance.

There could be many reasons
- ml could be an acronym for something
- it could be a result of a trend for non profit social networks to use
.ml
- ml is a less used domain. so it could be a cost saving measure as
.ml
is a completly free, low barrier to entry top level domain. (TLD) - the Malinian government gives away the domains for free, with restrictions. and you can essentially remove most restrictions by paying a small fee, so its a very low to no cost solution. - quite often -
.net
,.org
,.com
all have restrictions over who can buy a domain, and what for. As they are more “premium” top level domains.
I know here in Australia if you want to get a
.com.au
address you have to have an Australian business number or be registered as a not-for profit in australia (same for.org.au
and.net.au
, with variations on the restrictions) . I know that.org
also has similar restrictions - you essentially have to prove you’re an organization in your respective country.Motorhead Lemmy
Because the main instance is a drop in the ocean that the lemmyverse should be, so it makes sense to call it a “millilitre” (ml). [inb4 I’m making shit up.]
