I’d pick . And then people can register whatever TLD they want on top of that.

I would again recommend that anyone doing online marketing and/or tracking be legally confined to the .COM TLD. Severe penalties for corporate abuse would include removal of all internet access. Less severe penalties might include a confiscation of double of all profits made outside of .COM during a deliberate infraction.

.er .db All two letter TLDs are exclusive to countries. So unless you make a country called Ergostan and Dbaseistan and get them internationally recognised you are out of luck. However, if you manage you don’t have to pay the fee!

.antifa and .profa so we don’t have to guess where the company/project/person/etc. stands.

I’d pick going back to .edu, .gov, .mil, .com, .org, .net — and actually enforcing their meanings. None of this cash grab bullshit where a company has to buy the TLD for their company name over and over.

I believe more Tlds is generally stupid. But instead of all the protect the children bullshit, I'd be good with a .kids tld that requires certification to own. Then you can just whitelist that for your precious crotch goblins and leave the rest of us alone.

I think we really need a `.docx`. Why not do all of the classic office file extensions?

`.ope` : for all your midwestern typo needs `.doom` : all domains registered in this TLD must have a playable version of Doom somewhere on the site `.ram` : about as price effective as buying actual RAM rn. I call dibs on more.ram so I can have a downloads page at download.more.ram
