Public Suffix List (PSL) Pull Request (PR) Template

Each PSL PR needs to have a description, rationale, indication of DNS validation and syntax checking, as well as a number of acknowledgements from the submitter. This template must be included with each PR, and the submitting party MUST provide responses to all of the elements in order to be considered.

Checklist of required steps

• Description of Organization

• Robust Reason for PSL Inclusion

• DNS verification via dig

• Run Syntax Checker (make test)

• Each domain listed in the PRIVATE section has and shall maintain at least two years remaining on registration, and we shall keep the _PSL txt record in place in the respective zone(s) in the affected section

Submitter affirms the following:

• We are listing any third-party limits that we seek to work around in our rationale such as those between IOS 14.5+ and Facebook (see Issue #1245 as a well-documented example)

• This request was not submitted with the objective of working around other third-party limits

• The Guidelines were carefully read and understood, and this request conforms
• The submission follows the guidelines on formatting and sorting

---

For Private section requests that are submitting entries for domains that match their organization website's primary domain, please understand that this can have impacts that may not match the desired outcome and take a long time to rollback, if at all.

To ensure that requested changes are entirely intentional, make sure that you read the affectation and propagation expectations, that you understand them, and confirm this understanding.

PR Rollbacks have lower priority, and the volunteers are unable to control when or if browsers or other parties using the PSL will refresh or update.

(Link: about propagation/expectations)

• Yes, I understand. I could break my organization's website cookies etc. and the rollback timing, etc is acceptable. Proceed.

Description of Organization

Besties is a developer collective creating services for developers. We run git.gay, an OSS source code repository hosting platform, and pages.gay, its companion static site hosting service which is the subject of this request. I'm a founding member of Besties and created and maintain pages.gay.
Organization Website: https://besties.house

Reason for PSL Inclusion

pages.gay is a static website host similar to GitHub Pages and Codeberg Pages. It allows users to create their own sites for themselves and for their projects at username.pages.gay. These sites are each entirely distinct and should be treated as independent domains accordingly for cookie security features.

Number of users this request is being made to serve: around ~1000

DNS Verification via dig

dig +short TXT _psl.pages.gay
"https://github.com/publicsuffix/list/pull/1920"

Felt I should add we've been getting many more users pretty quickly, on track to 10x how many users we're reaching with this project from the 1k estimate I provided in the initial comment template

[dnsguru]

Wow that is quite a great thing to hear.

This was approved by @simon-friedberger and that qty was about to be the last question before this merged, but you addressed it before being asked.

• tests pass
• sorting correct
• dns proof = pull request URL
• no conflict with base
