No, it's Mali.

The rumour is that lemmy devs chose it to mean "marxist leninist" but I think it's more likely they wanted a free domain name.

The rumor is fake, the devs have said it multiple times. If they would have wanted to do some funny Marxism meme they would have used .su

Maybe they didn't choose it for that, but to be fair they are definitely and admittedly Marxist-Leninists

[-] [email protected] 25 points 2 years ago

Yes, as there are plenty of other developers who are openly liberals or some other flavour of capitalism. You don't need to agree with the developers political choices all the time to use their software.

Right. My statement was one of fact, not trying to say it's a bad thing. I'm a Marxist-Leninist as well.
