minus-squarejesuiscequejesuis@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up67·1 year agoTo be even more pedantic, if it’s not a resolvable TLD, then it is invalid.
minus-squareOtter@lemmy.calinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up32·1 year agoI don’t think that’s a valid TLD though. You’d need to pick from one of those: https://www.icann.org/resources/pages/tlds-2012-02-25-en
minus-squarebamboolinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up10·1 year ago.ck is a valid TLD, but apparently you can only get second-level domain names. If that weren’t the case, you could get queer.asfu.ck
minus-squareLwL@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up23·1 year agoI love that the first example on that page is .co.ck This feels underutilized.
minus-squarebamboolinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up11·1 year agoHoly shit, nice.co.ck could be yours for $586/two years: https://shop.gandi.net/en/domain/suggest?search=nice.co.ck&tld=ck. I guess you’d need to create a company called Nice and have it recognized by Cook Islands
minus-squarepivot_root@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up13·1 year agoIt might be hard to register a business named “Nice” in 2024 since it’s a really generic word. Instead, try: MyHuge — A workout supplement company. BigFat — Weight management coaching company. The Blackest — A company specializing in black inks and paints. PlayWithMy — Goods exchange company focused on trading video games and toys. Please Suck — Vacuum manufacturer.
minus-squarefreamon@endlesstalk.orglinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up6·1 year agoAnother alternative would be to use .uk (there’s already a lemmyf.uk)

Neither of those are valid TLDs.
To be a bit pedantic about it, they are perfectly valid, they just don’t exist.
To be even more pedantic, if it’s not a resolvable TLD, then it is invalid.
Fair enough lol.
I don’t think that’s a valid TLD though. You’d need to pick from one of those: https://www.icann.org/resources/pages/tlds-2012-02-25-en
