This is why we host our instance on a .org. Honestly another huge blow for Lemmy. It doesn't really inspire confidence in the platform. Hopefully after enough time passes smaller instances like us and the bigger ones left will have help up a good track record to inspire confidence again.
Only one went down - most everyone else are still up.
This is the opposite of a blow. It directly shows the resilience of the fediverse.
Where I live i cant access any .ml instances so for me even the lemmy.ml is down
This just shows how putting all eggs into one basket is a bad idea.
Only the fewest of few instances should have used .ml - they should have spread out. This is the beauty of the fediverse when done as intended.
The only drawback I see, is that people want to make instances bigger, scaling tall, when they should have been scaling wide + wanting to use the same odd TLD. We reap what we sow.
