.com is a good compromise. i believe the average user assumes the .com domain to be the most legitimate / canonical.

  I think it's the exact opposite. .com websites are very rarely legitimate, canonical whereas .org, .edu, .gov etc... are more legitimate and trustworthy

    All of those are US only, making .com the next best thing in this case I guess?

      Maybe it’s time to not make them us only. France.gov would make way more sense.

        FYI most of (all?) of government related websites are under *.gouv.fr in France. Having an alias under the .gov TLD for people used to this TLD would make sense, like eg tourism.france.gov => tourisme.gouv.fr

      All countries have their respective .edu, .gov, .org etc and if you consider them I think my point still stands.

        What do you mean? .edu and .gov are US-only.
        • gnulinux 8y ago
          E.g. France has .gouv.fr which is equivalent of .gov. All countries have their respective replacements, if needed.
