How is that even possible???

If he wanted to, couldn't spez just buy it, and make it serve as a redirect to reddit? I don't understand how SOMEONE hasn't bought/used this domain for fediverse purposes.

someone should start a fundraiser so we can buy it

you'd probably be better off setting up your own domain server and trying to get that working

I think there are better things to do with $500k than throw it all away for a useless domain name, like distribute it to the people who maintain fediverse software and host instances.

Nooo we can't do that because I don't 100% align with the beliefs of lemmys devs so I'd rather see the project go broke
