Ask HN: Why are there so many .christmas TLD's appearing on Hacker News?
I've noticed in the past couple weeks a tonne of domains with the christmas TLD have been appearing on hacker news? Currently there's 2 on the front page which seems to have been more than any other month of the year.
Why are there so many popping up? People being festive, having a seasonal-only blog? Or is there a domain provider having a offer on for christmas domains?

- eivarv 7y agoBekk (a Norwegian consultancy) bought a bunch of domains under the "christmas" TLD, and made bunch of "christmas calendars" [0]. They're probably submitting many of their daily posts from many of their calendars. [0]: https://bekk.christmas/ https://bekk.christmas/
- jsjohnst 7y agoFunny, was just coming to ask this as well, especially as most I’ve noticed have the same query path as well (/2019/11) for the article link.
