      I think queer.fr would be an awesome domain name too

      I mentioned on Mastodon the domain name “queersare.us” (parody of Toys R Us I guess) which actually makes use of the United States’ ccTLD that barely gets used. Someone pointed out to me exactly why that’s the case and it has something to do with scammers.

      No, since profanities are generally frowned upon in serious website domains.

          That’s a subdomain. The registered domain is itjust.works which they clearly won’t care about.

        QueerAsSu.ch doesn’t have the same ring to it, but they’ll be safe unless the gnomes of Zurich come for them.
