    1. The image contains misrepresentation, because the author [removed](https://github.com/tb0hdan/domains/commit/cfcaa6877f76d4f9fd6fa5f82d38cbcce1a90e69) 24M+ .ru domains from the database. That would put .ru into the top10 that is represented in the post, but, well.

      Quoting the website,

      >Our mission is to provide comprehensive domain data for security researchers, academics, and organizations fighting against cyber threats.

      Russia is purged from the dataset. It’s up to you to provide whichever subset of data you want to for any reasons, but calling it “comprehensive” isn’t valid in such case.

    2. Considering the source article is written today and this is pretty much the only post you’ve made in Reddit, this stinks a lot like advertisement.

    3. ConsciousStop on

      Regarding the UK, we’re split between .uk, .co.uk and org.uk. Wondering if the figure includes all 3 combined or just .uk.

    4. It would be interesting to look at the age of domains too. Internet usage is enormous in China, so why far fewer domains than DE/UK? Obviously DE/UK have been online longer, but maybe it’s also that the big boom for creating domains was pre-social media? Whereas now everyone is just funnelled into a few websites? Also probably restrictions in China on creating websites and a lot more censorship / removal of websites?
