    Could we, like, leave the clickbait headlines to reddit? Thanks. The queer.af admins just decided – wisely – not to renew the domain considering who the fee would go to.

    Reading that headline scared me. For a moment I thought the instance owner was killed by the Taliban.

      They almost certainly picked it just for the joke.

      queer.af = Queer AF = Queer as fuck!

      It’s like how popular the TLD of Guernsey (.gg) is with gaming websites.

      I wouldn’t be surprised if they didn’t even realize what country code the TLD was when they registered it.
