Entire .CLUB Domain Extension is Down

[renderTimi]
 
General Discussion

I have never seen this before.


    At time of writing, no .club domain names are resolving, instead
    returning NXDOMAIN errors to browsers, and the registry is
    reportedly working on fixing whatever ails it.


    The .club registry accounts for over a million domains, so the
    problem is affecting a lot of people.


    This is highly unusual. Entire TLDs do not typically just drop
    off the internet like this.


    The .club gTLD was acquired by GoDaddy from .CLUB Domains earlier
    this year, raising the possibility of some kind of
    handover-related problem. However, .club was already running on
    the old Neustar back-end, which GoDaddy acquired last year.

UPDATE - Looks like the registry fixed it and .CLUB domains are back
online.

The .io domain went offline... Two years ago maybe? Which, of course,
was awesome for the huge number of IT businesses that jumped on that
particular extension.

bet teachers were happy though, as students were doing work and
paying attention instead of playing .io games!

On a similar topic, one small factor that contributed to us not going
with Notion.so for documentation is that .so is the TLD for Somalia,
which doesn't have the strongest reputation for stability and
security.

Not sure it would've stopped us if we were totally in love with
Notion (it is nice) but it was a consideration.

Could be flaky satellite links to those islands in the middle of the
Indian Ocean... ;)

Draw.io moved to Diagrams.net as a result of an incident in 2017:

    that particular extension.

Lots of companies are still using .IO domains and paying up to buy
them.

explain the Facebook fiasco said that's what BGP stood for.

First rule of the .CLUB domain is you do not talk about the .CLUB
domain.

It's not as bad as it sounds. Or maybe it's worse, I'm not sure. In
2020 GoDaddy acquired the contract to run the .us TLD from Neustar.
So, they should, in theory, know how to do it right. So hopefully
they apply their Neustar talent to other TLDs, and don't mess them
all up. There is a lot more important stuff on the .us TLD.

Edit: a letter

Windows Admin who would rather work with Linux

Unfamiliar with this TLD but just an hour ago i banned .bar from my
mailservers because of the continuous spam. I hate these cheap shitty
domains.

So I guess, when it comes to spam, you set the .bar TLD to block.
