  • The TLD TL;DR is basically that domains don’t come out of nowhere. Just like how you need a lemmy.zip domain to be able to have the subdomains next.lemmy.zip or old.lemmy.zip, in order to have the domain lemmy.zip you must first have someone to run the .zip top-level domain (in this case, Google)

    Like Forester mentioned in the other comment, you can have any combination of letters you want as a TLD, you just have to set up and manage all the infra for it (or find somebody else to do it for you)



  • You actually can’t. I think you should be able to, but currently you can’t. You can post from Masto to Lemmy by tagging the Lemmy community in the top level post, but tagging in a reply does nothing

    In fact actually you can’t even really crosspost from Lemmy to Lemmy. Posts that link to the same thing are lists as cross posts, but aren’t actually directly related. Text-only posts can’t be recognized as crossposts at all
