I wished to all that is real I hadn't used the dot Live TLD for my self-hosted Mastodon instance. Domain renewal costs are getting out of control and no way to change domain names and keep posts. I could spin up a new instance and then migrate my accounts over but lose everything I've posted, replies, etc esp @hashtaggames account.
Be nice if Mastodon and Federation had a way to migrate domain names. If the IO domain TLD goes defunct, probably won't, some big instances could be in a bind.
Luckily, those servers will have a couple years to transition, if it does, per ICANN policies. Still.
If wishes were dollars, we would all be rich. #MastoAdmin #Federation #Fediverse .
Looks like it’s $22 on porkbun. Are you expecting it to get much worse?
@paul@oldfriends.live@czech NameCheap raised renewals to over $32 for dot live, dot social is now $38, blaming the registries for raising their prices.
On October 4, 233 TLDs had price increases.
