    Pretty sure they went with .ml not for price reasons, but because they liked to pretend it stood for their political ideology.

      Maybe. I read the idea about it standing for Marxist/Leninist, but there’s thousands of TLDs now - if you can get .diamonds and .world, there’s probably something that would evoke the same lefty idea (although maybe lemmy pre-dates the new domains, I don’t know)

        New domains have been around for a while. The fancy ones are a bit more pricey.
