i use a 3 letter .sh domain and i think it is pretty cool

>>105884157 (OP)
is it short for "shit"?

.moe

>>105884231
it's short for shell

>>105884287
why would you use that for a personal website? unless you are a troon

>>105884337
Because I like otaku culture.

>>105884803
i hope they find a cure anon

org because i thinks its funny

>>105884157 (OP)
.xyz because it's cheap.

>>105885185
isn't that true for like the first year only?

>>105884855
Otaku website

>>105885379
posting on an anonymous board is not the same as revealing to everyone that you are a disgusting troon freak on your website

>>105884157 (OP)
I don't, I passionately hate bash.

>>105885578
why?

>>105885199
Yup, it's about 15 €/y after the first year.
The cheapest ones for renewing price I've found are:
.ovh which is 2.99 €
.top and .tn which are 4.49 €
and .es which is 5.79 €

>>105885657
Because It's not a proper programming language, and it looks more like a hack. https://mywiki.wooledge.org/BashPitfalls

.info, .net was already taken and .com is for niggers

>>105884316
Actually it's short for the British Overseas Territory of Saint Helena, Ascension and Tristan da Cunha

>>105886112
sorry to break it to you but no normal person publically associates with chinese cartoons to the point that they make it their whole personality

>>105886189
i like to think that it stands for shell

.eu because I'm a federalist and it was cheap initially.
Also one of my country's cctld and the main one

>>105884157 (OP)
.dev because the first year it was 7 bucks, now 19 bucks each year. it kinda made sense because i host a blog where i write about my development journey.

>>105886426
that was also my second option but i didn't want my website to be dedicated to software development only

>>105886190
>t. normalfag

>>105887595
kys you degenerate troon

Rent free

>>105884157 (OP)
.com for my main personal, but i also have a .dev and 2 .xyz

.com and .space
I think I have a .net for lulz but I'm not actively using it

eu.org
is free

>>105884157 (OP)
.moe, my personal website is a shrine to my waifu

>>105884157 (OP)
.ooo

Looks distinctive and clean, easy to type out on various devices. Wish I could be the one to own ooo.ooo but oh well.

>>105884157 (OP)
.neocities

I bought lastname.link
I don't have any public facing sites, I'm just using it for internal sites so I can have certificates on like pihole.lastname.link

>>105888505
why would you associate internal sites with your real last name?

.su
You're welcome on our collective lawn comrade!

.home.arpa is the "best practice" for internal sites at home. Obviously nearly no one actually uses it.

>>105888513
No reason in particular, it was available and I bought it. I only started using for internal sites later seemed stupid to buy a second domain for this.

>>105884157 (OP)
I use surname.net because I am actually employed (and well paid for my work)

Eritrea has the TLD .er and has only a tiny number of domains under it (less than 70). Given the importance and commonality of the word ending 'er' in English, they could make tons of money like other countries with their national TLD.

>>105890375
This can't be real. As if they WANT us to do it.

>>105888415
good domain names like ooo.ooo are usually reserved by the register

>>105888390
>eu.org
>is free
yeah, I heard of people who have waitet over a year and didn't get any response if the domain is working.

>>105884157 (OP)
.net because it's cheaper than all the quirky domains in my domain registrar.

>>105890375
>>105890391
As soon as someone registers nigg.er, he will get in the same amount of trouble as the groomer who registered the .kids domain.

>>105889131
do you think 3 letter initials on a .sh domain is jobless behavior?

>>105884157 (OP)
.gitgud.site

>datamining thread

>>105884157 (OP)
.systems for carino.systems
But recently acquired .sh for scripting reasons. Don't know yet if I'll do a complete change.

Why do people still pay out the ass for ccTLDs when there are shitloads of cheap generic TLDs now? Domain hacks were fun back when your options were dogshit, now they just make you look like the kind of retard who pays for vanity plates.

>>105894943
i pay like $30/year for my .sh domain, it's not that expensive. and its not really a domain hack, the 3 letters are just my initials and the .sh domain goes well with my name

>>105894943
country code TLDs are the cheapest when it comes to renewing prices.
The generic ones are cheaper only for the first year.

>>105891481
With it you could be either a hardcore 45yo hacker who gets scouted by top tech firms, or a pretend-haxx0r CS freshman

>>105896083
i guess i fit in with the latter

>>105884157 (OP)
if you have a personal website that is a huge red flag

>>105896175
red flag for what?

>>105896192
Don't you know the lyrics?

He doesn't know either, he just bumped

>>105888523
Should not it be .py?

>>105896366
Early on country codes were mostly based on the English name of the country. Paraguay already has .py and now that local language TLD are acceptable, .pф is used as an alternative to .ru domains. The .su domain is to be phased out by 2030 but currently there are well over 100k registered .su domains.

>>105897111
what will happen to those registered domains?

>>105897313
For most users, the domain will stop resolving, but Russian ISPs could have their own DNS that continues to support them, in which case users in Russia who use their ISP's DNS would still be able to access them.
My guess is that when the 2030 deadline approaches, there will be a five year extension, and in 2035, ICANN will delete .su, leaving it up to DNS providers to decide if they want to keep supporting it.
By then most sites should have moved to one of the other domains. The real risk will be that some unknown daemon somewhere is running an important background task everyone has forgotten about, with a hard coded reference to a .su domain. If it no longer can get the IP address for that domain, the task will fail and something will stop working for no apparent reason. Maybe it will be a crosswalk sign. Maybe it will be a radio beacon. Maybe it will be the music being piped into a rural market in Siberia.

>Maybe it will be a crosswalk sign. Maybe it will be a radio beacon. Maybe it will be the music being piped into a rural market in Siberia.

or maybe a deadman's switch on a nuke launcher

>>105898193
Hopefully not but given the window of time during which both the Soviet Union and .su existed, can't 100% rule out the possibility. In the chaos of the USSR dissolving, this is the type of thing that could have gone undocumented and forgotten.

.com if possible (it never is)
followed by .net and .xyz

None, I just can't find a domain name I like. They're all taken.

>>105884157 (OP)
.troon the domain name is crazyass.

I use a .sbs from spaceship domains. It’s 2$ Euros first year and then 12$ after the first year

>>105901564
first time i'm hearing of this domain. are you using it just because the registration was cheap?

>>105884287
based, me too

>>105902302

>>105902737

>>105902031
Yes. I’d only seen it on there and because it was cheap.

>>105884157 (OP)
.com
because I like that root servers resolve it

I have .pl domain - poland stronk
though you might think it's for perl scripts
