@alexanderkluge@swizec Yeah, that's exactly my feeling. Like .com/.co/.net/.org (and .io/.me...) are the "normative" thing to do and that's still such a powerful thing inside people's heads. But as everything becomes more and more digital (and there's just that – a link to click) I'm surprised as why no major player and/or successful mass-market startup hasn't fully adopted a new TLD as their main domain yet. I'd love to see things like google.tech or tinder.social. Trying to come up with a project naming that fits both the .com and the naming purposes is becoming ridiculous (downloadAPPNAMEnow.com and such). If anyone knows of a successful "big" thing with a weird TLD (apart, from, you know, wip.chat :P), I'd love to hear about it! :)
