I swear, I thought all three-letter dot short-tld domains were sold.

Apparently not. Here is an excerpt from an iwantmyname search:

Been wanting a super short domain. birb.it is neat, but i kinda ended up using it as my network's entire identity xD I also have ingwie.me and two others but i just wanna have an ultra short domain to throw email aliasing at, and run some tiny things (like my nostr relay) and just let it sit there as something i can type ultra fast or dictate to someone quickly. Yes... here in germany, at least, we still do dictate links, sometimes. xD
