Interestingly I’m seeing DNS requests to s1.sep.tselinograd.su on my IDS 🤔The host doesn’t resolve and I see many weird hosts from Fediverse instance names (registered in all kinds of exotic TLDs) and links (previews generated by the instance) but this one is unusual…
Anyway, there’s no such country .su so I think I’m just going to drop these…
@kravietz
The TLD is still legit though: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/.su
I think they've resurrected it in about 2010 and started accepting new registrations as they started running out of good names in .ru and domains in national alphabets weren't introduced yet. I've seen a few legitimate websites — not scam or placeholders, using this TLD 🤷
@kravietz
E.g. https://x-flash.su/ — more or less trustworthy brand for electric lamps, I think they still make them in China, but compared to other brands available in Russia it ain't bad.
@m0xee @kravietz OpenNIC has TLDs for nations that aren’t officially recognised.
