    Same, its short and I’m used to it now… the only things it’d be worth to change to would be like .org or .com, and those are owned or incredibly expensive.

      Honestly, blocking TLDs is a really dumb way of spam filtering. Pretty much all the spam/scam sites I’ve seen are on paid TLDs anyway.

      Also, fuck domain flipping. I hate it when people try to sell domains at ludicrous prices. It only harms the internet as a whole and accomplishes nothing of value.
