This wasn’t a technical requirement though, sex.com would’ve loaded just fine if it had an A record set.
- codezero 6y agoMany sites didn’t do this right even large ones and often browsers if my memory serves right automatically put www and .com on any single word typed by default. That said yes, that should have worked, I just remember it not working enough that it wasn’t a normal or expected UX pattern until Google and maybe even Chrome.
