Edit: we made a join-lemmy.org banner in the center instead. It was a fight.
Edit: We’ve lost to South Africa. Please help with overwriting this r/ to c/ instead!

The previous one by The Black Company was too wide to defend against Italy. Let’s make this one! I know LEMMY.ML is not the full Lemmyverse but we don’t have space for JOIN-LEMMY.ORG now.
To use its template, install the r/place userscript (guide) and go to https://new.reddit.com/r/place/?jsontemplate=https%3A%2F%2Fraw.githubusercontent.com%2FChaoticNeutralCzech%2FmyRandomImages%2Fmain%2FplaceLemmyTemplate.json&screenmode=fullscreen
or if you already have it, import one of these (either the URLencoded one in URL, or the raw one in plugin settings)

There’s an ongoing fiasco with the Mali government reclaiming all .ml websites. Fmhy lemmy is already gone as they used a .ml. You may want to link to the org instead, just in case
I know, it’s better for decentralization to link to the directory. The Black Company tried but they were overrun by Italy.
LEMMY.MLis the “shortest” Lemmy link and we cannot fit anything more unless the canvas expands or the very loose Fuck Spez Coalition lends us more space.Might I suggest lemm.ee? It’s pretty short and doesn’t have any issues with the Mali government.
If there can be a consensus between switching to lemm.ee or Kbin, I’d love to lend my pixel to either of those.
I came here to suggest that. Already suggested it in the black company discord and the place join lemmy matrix, seems like the idea is picking up on the place join lemmy matrix
Stupid question incoming… what is this lemmy matrix you speak of?
matrix.to/#/#lemmyplace:data.haus - matrix chat for coordination for lemmy on r/place
Thanks! Never heard of matrix before so will give it a gander!
I had pretty much never heard of it either till this morin, maybe one or two mentions on lemmy.
The only problem might be the 100kb limit for media uploads.
I mean, it’s good because it ensures that lemm.ee doesn’t run out of storage easily but on the other hand users have to outsource their uploads or reduce their media size.
It’d be pretty good if lemmy instances had built in image compression to save on storage costs for all instances. I hope lemmy devs consider it
Is it related to the news of us military secrets being sent to ml emails?
Thats just typo shit. The real reason is the contract ended.
Yeah .ml domains were free but I’m sure that wouldn’t last forever.
The guy that currently runs the .ml registrar is warning the US military that a lot of emails meant for .mil addresses are ending up on mail servers that he currently controls, and will end up in the hands of the Mali government very soon. He set up the navy dot ml and army dot ml domains years ago to intercept and discard those mistyped emails, but is renewing his efforts to contact the US DoD about the issue because he’s losing access/control of those servers when the Mali government takes back .ml.
Oh is that where that instance went. Was wondering what happened.
