Modern TLDs are used in various smaller services. squoosh.app comes to mind for something I use. The Fediverse is also full of alternative TLDs: lots of .social, .chat, .lol, .place, and .world in the instance list. .com has been exhausted for a while, if you don't want to buy your new domain from a squatter you'll probably need to go through thisworddoesnotexist.com or register domains that look like .onion URLs.

If squatters and registrars weren't so shite, I could absolutely see a new service with a name like "share.zip" or "you.mov" taking off. call.ing seems like a perfect domain for a video chat service. Too bad these domains cost several thousands of dollars (as a starting price).

Too bad any domain with fewer than five letters has been registered by the companies selling these domains the moment the TLDs came out.

Domains aren't used by multi million dollar companies, but plenty of blogs and other independent servers using the alt-TLDs.
