The problem is who controls them. The government of each country can decide at any moment that they want to take control of their TLD and remove any sites that they don’t like. It’s just not good practice if you want your site to stick around.
Right. So how do you differentiate between the 2-letters ones and 3+? Each TLD can have domains requisitiioned by a government, even if its indirect through ICANN.
ICANN is certainly not perfect, but there is a difference between the automatic control that countries have over their ccTLD and the control they have through ICANN.
What’s wrong with 2 letter country TLDs?
.uk .de .us .nl etc all seem like okay candidates
They used .af because in modern english, “af” stands for “as fuck”
As in “queer. As fuck”, meaning VERY queer
