Interesting #poll results so far. See alt text for some of my insights.

I think this this is enough reason for me to try a new domain name for a change. I don't own one anyway - simply got one for free from #FreeDNS. I should choose one that still has a good reputation - it's not the first time I've seen it reported for malware.

@jrballesteros05 thanks for checking. As I suspected; it seems that the `0x.no` domain from which I'm getting a subdomain from #FreeDNS is getting blacklisted as malicious. Not the first time I've seen this happening, also with this provider. I guess I'll have to look for another free domain to host my site in.

Shout-out to pal @selea that also maintains instance social.linux.pizza, counting 1.4K+ active users as per today, and few other services. With the recent system administrator's day! 🎉 :fistbump: 🎉

Upon looking in a profile: nah, I don't believe for a sec that you're pretending to be one - telling as a person who only touches DNS with a pole. 😅

Mastodon hosted on social.linux.pizzaLinux.PizzaA instance dedicated - but not limited - to people with an interest in the GNU+Linux ecosystem and/or general tech. Sysadmins to enthusiasts, creators to movielovers - Welcome!

Got an email today from the company in Iceland that bought x.is - which was a #VPS hosting service, #FreeDNS and more - telling me that those services were being turned off this year.
Why do I have a sneeky suspicion that that domain will now end up in the hands of a certain billionaire?
