It’s the instance owned and operated by the main Lemmy devs. Most instances are run by totally unaffiliated people using Lemmy software. .ml is the only one where you could say the software devs are also the community Admins and moderators.
“Lemmy” is not a platform, it is software you can use to make a platform (unless you’re on .ml I guess).

.ml belongs to Malian government, hence Marxist websites register the domains with that TLD.
