Not sure if this topic fits in this community but recently my account on a lemmy instance with a .ml extension (lemmy.fmhy.ml) was rendered inaccessible.

While the instance works to a degree (I can set a dns overide to gain acess) due to the broken domain it effectivly renders my account (and the instance lost due to federation).

While bookworm is fine I worry about other instances like lemmy.ml which has the same domain prefix and hosts many communities.

    FMHY was a great freedom instance. The only defederated instances were Lemmygrad and exploding-heads. And those were both so awful that I actually wanted to see them defederated. The only one I would have added to the defed list is Burggit because it’s literally just for loli content and it’s just fucking gross.
