My silly -verse suggestion: palaverse, from palaver + universe.

I wonder if there's a parallel universe where children are called "childs" and adults are called "adultren" in c/showerthoughts@lemmy.world

Not what you asked for, but Welsh has irregular plurals for adults and children, too:

Adult: oedolyn
Adults: oedolion

Child: plentyn
Children: plant

(Still learning, so I'm not too sure why or how)

I was uncomfortable with the fact that .ml was hosted in Malaysia

Not to discount your other points, but lemmy.ml isn't hosted in Malaysia. The .ml TLD is for Mali, a country in Africa. And the site is hosted by OVH, on servers in France.
