How is that even possible???
If he wanted to, couldn’t spez just buy it, and make it serve as a redirect to reddit? I don’t understand how SOMEONE hasn’t bought/used this domain for fediverse purposes.
You must log in or # to comment.
I don’t think reddit would care enough to try and defend itself against lemmy. Lemmy isn’t that much of a big threat for them.
Yet.
Yet.
send the money to lemmy devs instead of a domain.
How much is it?
Lol, that’s insane. I hope everybody saves their money for better things.
Holy shit. Fuck that.
What a ridiculous price.
someone should start a fundraiser so we can buy it
I think there are better things to do with $500k than throw it all away for a useless domain name, like distribute it to the people who maintain fediverse software and host instances.
Nooo we can’t do that because I don’t 100% align with the beliefs of lemmys devs so I’d rather see the project go broke
The .org seems to require a log in. I wonder what entity has these domains. I imagine the folks working to manifest the fediverse don’t have the capacity to buy up all the possible domains.
It also doesn’t even make sense to buy up all the possible domains. It would just be a waste of money, and surely someone could come up with a domain name that you didn’t think of (fediverse-network.com).
