I believe they’re officially deprecated. They were never in use much, with the Soviet Union collapsing long before the average ex-Soviet citizen had access to the internet. However, it was still reserved, and is still in use today. Russians and Russia affiliated countries seem to like the TLD.
I don’t think .su has any regional restrictions to the signup process. However, being a Russian TLD, getting one in the west may be risky and possibly even difficult because of sanctions.

A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.
What happened to .su domains though?

Yeah. Is a shame what happened to .eu in the UK, I think they should have let private individuals keep renewing it at the least.
