Mastodon instance Queer.af is shutting down because the country that provides the domain is now ruled by the Taliban.

When registering a country code domain, keep in mind where the domain is being registered. A shift in government or geopolitics can have serious consequences.

    Anything with “free speech” in its name looks really shady these days

      i get it, but this is not a new brand.

      its a solid, local team of linux geeks that wanted pay-per-use service. it shows in their interface, i love it.

      ive been with them for over 15 years. i chose them because they were one of the first to outright say “we wont do shit without a court order”

      or you could, ya know, trust the taliban. for some reason.
