    Jesus Christ this will be a major pain in the ass if it goes through… I’m really not in the mood of having to reconfigure all my self hosted services to a new domain.

      Do it anyway. Having anything behind a TLD that is tied to the political control of a tiny geographic area is insanely careless

        Maybe, but I had no idea this was tied to a country. I thought it was a novelty tld, like xyz and art. You know, like input/output so io.

          Yeah, I’ve been with you. I owned a couple .so from Somalia for a while. They cranked up the cost to $$$ and I had to cancel it. I’m not a smartass, I just burned myself already in the past

          That assumption is exactly why tons of techbros jumped on it. But no, it’s for the British Indian Ocean Territory. Roughly 23 square miles of islands all within pissing distance of each other south of India.
