It seems to be Mali just wanting their domains back, in which case it's uncertain times for all .ml domains.
rip lemmy.ml
It's just the domain, though. That's not a big deal to change.
Currently, activitypub identity is tied to domain name. Mastodon support migration as long as the old domain is still up during the migration process, but AFAIK Lemmy doesn't even have a process to migrate an instance to a new domain yet.
Someone should tell Lemmy devs and send them a crate of coffee because it'll be a race to implement domain migration before all .ml domains got shut down.
