Update: Seems this is a Firefox specific bug in the Slack Webapplication, it works in Chrome and the Slack Electron Application as it should. Tested with Firefox ESR on Debian/buster and Firefox 74 on OS X.

Ah I like it that we now have so many TLDs and matching on those seems to go bad more often now. Last occassion is Slack (which I think is a pile of shit written by morons, but that is a different story) which somehow does not properly match on .co domains. Leading to this auto linking:

Now I'm not sure if someone enocountered the same issue, or people just registered random domains just because they could. I found registrations for

• resolv.co
• pam.co
• sysctl.co
• so.co (ld.so.co woud've been really cute)

I've a few more .conf files in /etc which could be interesting in an IT environment, but for the sake of playing with it I registered nsswitch.co at godaddy. I do not want to endorse them in anyway, but for the first year it's only 13.08EUR right now, which is okay to pay for a stupid demo. So if you feel like it, you can probably register something stupid for yourself to play around with. I do not intent to renew this domain next year, so be aware of what happens then with the next owner.
