minus-squaresem@lemmy.blahaj.zonelinkfedilinkarrow-up1·11 hours agoYeah that’s weird too. So would a TLD of .txt or .doc or can you imagine a TLD of .html? They’re all weird just to various degrees. Why would you want .d as a TLD? To me it would just be weird and confusing.
minus-squarewhithomlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·11 hours ago.a, .b, .c… Why are they limiting us? Seems like ICANN has an unfair position. Someone should start a competing dns that allows domain registrations with single letter domains. That’s kind of how .onion works (for dns)

minus-squarewhithomlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·10 hours agoA url is a url. If your only concern is that it might be confusing to the user, then we shouldn’t have TLDs at all. googIe.com and google.com are different. What now? Force serif fonts?

It’s not confusing. It’s just a tld.
