Same. I was looking for alternatives to the R word and I saw lemmy and was interested, until I saw the ".ml" and immediately heard the amungus noise.

I was very happy to see this here. While I'm still working on blocking all the ml and genzdong communities I see in all, it's already a lot better than I expected going into it.

Omg, I'm so dumb. I never even realized that the ML meant "Marxism-Leninism" i.e. tankieism.

Oh wow, suddenly that makes sense. I open minded but I think that’s going in the wrong direction. Should just de-federate that one until they get cleaned up? Normally against that but honestly have seen quite a few threads against lemmy as a whole as a result of .ml

It's also a free TLD. Or at least it was before Freenom kinda fucked up and stopped registering new domains.

I think lemmy.ml is actually paying to make sure they keep it but I dunno.
