You're on .ml it's literally Marxist Leninist. You're like an American standing in Mexico complaining about everyone speaking Spanish.
It's literally Mali. Having alternate country codes is just a way to take advantage of countries with less of a presence on the internet to be able to get better domain names and at a lower price. .ml specifically was given away for free.
The worst, I think, is .io since the profits of those domains should go to the chagossians, but it just goes to the British government.
I'm not OP, but thanks for spelling that out. I guess I must have seen a bunch of tech stuff from that instance starting out. I was under the impression it was started by Machine Learning enthusiasts. Lol.
