    Lemmy has a well established name like Mastodon, so it could have been granted an exception, its developers represent Lemmy.ml instance. Small instances, not so much.

          True, “pull the wool over your own eyes” as the great guru J. R. “Bob” Dobbs says, however here it is more like “I’m not excepting your wool on my eyes.”

          You have no proof that the Mali government decided to let lemmy.ml rock simply because it was “big.” Lemmy.ml being “big” is even debatable in and of itself, “big” compared to what, Reddit? Twitter? Just smaller lemmy instances? For some reason I doubt that the government in Mali has a stake in what happens to lemmy.ml, what the hell would they care? I doubt one Mali gov employee even has an acct there. Can’t be “money” since the pretense is that “the domain is free.”

          Someone somewhere is lying, whether you ignore it or not, I don’t care.
