New in the .fyi zone on Mon, Oct 19
183 names appeared in the zone file — new registrations, plus a few older names that regained nameservers.
How this works: the registry publishes a zone file once a day listing every domain with nameservers. We compare each day's file with the previous one; a name that disappears has almost always been deleted and enters a 30-day redemption period, followed by five days of pending delete, after which it is released. We confirm every name with the registry's RDAP service before it is listed as a drop.
