The rumor is fake, the devs have said it multiple times. If they would have wanted to do some funny Marxism meme they would have used .su

Maybe they didn't choose it for that, but to be fair they are definitely and admittedly Marxist-Leninists

[-] gary_host_laptop@lemmy.ml 24 points 1 year ago

Yes, as there are plenty of other developers who are openly liberals or some other flavour of capitalism. You don't need to agree with the developers political choices all the time to use their software.

Right. My statement was one of fact, not trying to say it's a bad thing. I'm a Marxist-Leninist as well.

Hello there comrade! Nice to have you here!

[-] Fenzik@lemmy.ml 10 points 1 year ago

This was a lovely exchange comrades

Yeah they are, so if they did choose .ml for that reason they would have no problem admitting it also. So it's pretty clear that they just wanted a free domain.

SU = Soviet Union

Don't you need to be a citizen of a CIS nation to get a .su domain?

It depends on the registrar.
