minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkEnglish18•1 year ago .edu Education (MURICA) .edu is not only american. For example I know many schools in France have .edu domains and emails, and I believe it’s the case in many more countries.
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkEnglish16•1 year agoIn 2001 it was limited to US educational institutions only, all registrations prior were grandfathered in. Although I haven’t got a clue why my non-US university, founded in 2009, has a .edu domain.
minus-squarelivuslinkfedilink6•1 year agoPretty sure most countries use .ac for universities. Ac.uk, ac.au, ac.nz are all standard.

Stands for academia if it wasn’t self evident to anyone else either. 2nd edit: having trouble with escaping characters in the link so it’s defaulting to the ac page when it should be https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/.ac_(second-level_domain)
