I made a website that lets you use ranked choice voting in a mock UK General Election to explain how it works. (publicslate.co.uk)

I don't know if this is too self-promotey to put in the more serious subs so I'm putting it here. I need to blag being able to do the django framework so I spent a week fannying about with it to make this. Feel free to mess about with it, give feedback or repost it on reddit or any other lemmy knock-offs.

This is great! It would be good to post it to uk_politics to get more numbers!

Needs more data, but good work!

Off-topic: why .co.uk rather than .uk?

Why .uk rather than .co.uk?

[–] sabreW4K3@lazysoci.al 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Wasn't .co.uk originally meant to be for UK companies? And with .uk available, it's just easier to not have to type three superfluous characters.

But all in all, there's no correct answer. I was just curious, as it's the first chance I've had to ask someone that registered a new UK based tld recently.

I think by the time .UK was available, people were already totally used to .co.uk so it's still a bit jarring to use the new one
