I don’t know if this is too self-promotey to put in the more serious subs so I’m putting it here. I need to blag being able to do the django framework so I spent a week fannying about with it to make this. Feel free to mess about with it, give feedback or repost it on reddit or any other lemmy knock-offs.

    Wasn’t .co.uk originally meant to be for UK companies? And with .uk available, it’s just easier to not have to type three superfluous characters.

    But all in all, there’s no correct answer. I was just curious, as it’s the first chance I’ve had to ask someone that registered a new UK based tld recently.

      I think by the time .UK was available, people were already totally used to .co.uk so it’s still a bit jarring to use the new one

        Oh for sure. I don’t even see any websites trying to switch or even purchasing the .UK versions.

        It doesn’t help that we have no words that end with uk.
