The entire .zip TLD is blocked as a security risk.

Maybe don’t use a domain that looks like a virus payload.

Maybe I'm not technically literate enough to get what you're saying, but these are jpg images

That website domain ends in .zip

The .zip domain is blocked for me because it looks like a virus/malware site.

Nobody legit should be using a .zip website.

Damn, I had no idea difference versions of Lemmy would be blocked because of the domain name. Fucking hell, I just moved from beehaw not too long ago

It’s not a Lemmy thing.

It’s a new domain Google introduced over the objections of security experts.

Why would any legit site choose that domain?

It’s like putting your website at virus.com or something.

He's talking about your instance's Top Level Domain (TLD). Mine is .pt and yours is .zip.
