Do you have ideas for TLDs? Here's some of mine, not sure if any of these exist already:

  • .plus
  • .now
  • .ent (short for enterprise)
  • .one
  • .er (for domain hacks, don't get any ideas)
  • .db
  • .source

I’d pick .

And then people can register whatever TLD they want on top of that.

You've inspired me. I'd pick , and watch the world fucking BURN. :)

Im pretty sure you can already get a .one

Why not remove gTLDs altogether? With the exception of country-specific TLDs, they no longer serve a purpose.

Adding all of these worthless extensions that nobody uses just exposes how pointless the whole system is.

.moon / .nasa / .usa / .cali

you can check if domain is tld here https://data.iana.org/TLD/tlds-alpha-by-domain.txt

Lmao. $227k just to get heard. Looks like it's time for a .227k domain.

[–] daychilde@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

Yeah, .ent would not be primarily registered by enterprises…

.one exists

I'd love to have a vanity gTLD, but it'd have to cost a shitload less.

Another protocol instead of that historically grown hodgepodge and the DNS domain grift.

How about .sack .sick .sock .suck

[–] SqueakySpider@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 4 weeks ago

.ent would quickly be picked up by the cannabis enthusiasts of course

It’s important to note that two letter domains are generally reserved for country codes and would require a country for them to be provisioned.

Time for Oracle to use an army of their lawyers to sue the Oracle country into existence and register .db

Any 3 letter common file extension should be banned
