As the title says, I’m ready to fire up a Lemmy server of my own. I have a suitable VPS running Debian 11. I think I can probably make short work of it once I get past this one difficult point. What should I call my Lemmy server? With catchy names out there like “Lemmy.World” and “sh.itjust.works”, I really want to come up with something good. Unfortunately after thinking it over for three days now and checking tons of names for availability, I don’t feel any closer to deciding on a name. It doesn’t help that almost all the dictionary words are sold at premium rates these days, even with a fairly obscure tld. Any name suggestions or techniques for choosing a good name would be appreciated. It probably sounds silly but this part just isn’t my strong suit and I’m frustrated that it’s holding up the project.
.my doesn’t exist
It totally does, and lem.my is even available! But you need to be an officially registered business in Malaysia to get a .my domain which is going to make it hard. Otherwise I would have registered it already 😅
Ah, that explains it. I assumed Google would show me everything, it is Google. Apparently they don’t, though. Maybe I should find a service that doesn’t actually offer registration.
