Why a city would want a .com tld? A .gov tld would be far more applicable IMO

Annoyingly, people are more likely to "blind guess" at .com than .gov, just cause there's more of them

Do people even still exist who have the arcane knowledge to type in a domain directly?

[–] emergencyfood@sh.itjust.works 8 points 3 days ago

Hey, that's not arcane knowledge.

Arcane knowledge is memorising the server's IP address.

I do, but only for websites I already know, though usually I have those bookmarked.

Some folks just when high on weed and/or bored will try typing random URLs to see if they're anything

(I was one of those back when I was a teen)
