expires: in 21d

the only thing that bothers me is lemmy.ml bears the name of the platform
I mean, so does lemmy.pt and lemmy.cat, but you are right, people see it as the first instance recommended on join-lemmy with the most users and that is has lemmy as its name and think it’s in some way the official instance.

If your post is
