Thanks for the suggestion, but as a Dot US (United States), I don't think that would be a good fit.

I need an admin who allows more than 500 characters in post, who is good at keeping their site up to date, who hates Nazis and scammers as much as I do, who will be OK with me posting facts (with proof), and can ignore the few dummy accounts (scam accounts) that will no doubt mass-flood your inbox with false reports.
Bonus points (and preferred) if their site is outside U.S. jurisdiction (both the hosting and the domain extension).

If you haven’t upgraded to Wi-Fi 7 — skip it.
Why?
2 years, Wi-Fi 8 will be released. In fact, some manufacturers (like TP-Link) are already working on prototype models.
I suggest waiting the two years.

To quote someone:
> 🤭 Linux users *are* very loyal, territorial....
I’m not loyal to any particular Linux distribution. It’s software — I use what works, when it works.
Personally, I’m using NixOS. It’s an immutable distro and operates outside U.S. jurisdiction.
That said, I fully recognize that, at the moment, there are no Linux distributions outside U.S. jurisdiction that are truly accessible to users with little or no technical skill. I also acknowledge that NixOS has a definite learning curve.
So I considered what would be best for everyone else, and I landed on Fedora and Kubuntu. I also make a point to warn people that, while they may hear old-school Linux users praise Arch Linux and Linux Mint, those might not be the best choices for newcomers.
You’d think I had sacrificed their firstborn or something. lol 😅

I truly dislike it when people use half-truths to push their agenda. 🙄
Fedora is not a bleeding-edge release, though it does offer one — called Fedora Rawhide.
No one credible or reasonable is recommending Fedora Rawhide to new users. Fedora Rawhide is comparable to recommending openSUSE Tumbleweed — unless you're fairly tech-savvy and comfortable with the risks that come with using a bleeding-edge, rolling release.
I would never suggest something like that to a Windows user who has never tried or learned Linux.
In my opinion, Linux Mint users are some of the worst trolls in the Linux community. It’s nearly impossible to express an objective or slightly critical viewpoint without them taking it personally and responding with an extreme overreaction. 🤷

Did you know...
In countries like the UK, Canada, or Australia, if the government can't pass a budget, there is no "shutdown". Instead, the government is forced to resign, and new elections are held.
Sounds like a good idea. We should do the same. 👍

Since the influx of Blue Sky and Twitter users, Mastodon Dot Social had unfortunately — but temporarily — experienced a few Nazi accounts, all of which have since been removed. However, a few individuals are now wrongfully claiming that the Fediverse is no different, simply because a few bad individuals managed to make it here.
What they’re choosing to ignore is the key difference: those accounts were dealt with and rightfully removed. The fact that they weren’t caught immediately does not support the implications being made. 🙄
Haters are going to hate. 🤷

Excuse me while I repost a few of my post from my account that was lost, after the admin changed the rules without much notice (random post, and applied instantly).
A few highlights that I felt good about.

I'll keep that in mind.
But the dot net is a U.S. based domain. You're hosted in Germany, which means your files and database is safe, yet the domain can still be pulled by Donald Trump and his goons.
