With several Lemmy instances using the .ml TLD I’ve seen people mention others being risky as well. Which should be avoided?

You could also choose a 5-10 digit .xyz domain, those cost $€0.85

The first year. Then it’s likely $12/year.

Weird, because I’ve had an .xyz domain for years, and after the first year the price goes up.
