Probably a silly question but the .uk domain is really cheap. If I’m not in the UK can I still use that domain for my server without issue?
Its like 50 bucks for a ten year lease

Totally fine. The only issue could come from legal implications since the domain registrations are managed by different organisations in different countries (leading to your registration data being an open book with .net domains but most likely unavailable with .nexus). However unless you’re silly enough to host a very gay social media instance using the TLD from god damn Afghanistan you’re probably fine (yes, that happened).
It depends on where it comes from too because some countries have been letting people use theirs specifically because it makes sense given what the content is. I learned this for the .tv domain which is for the country Tuvalu but they’ve found it a nice way to make some extra money for television shows wanting a neat domain.
I looked up the .ai TLD on Wikipedia and
Things will get interesting if the folks over there decide it’s time to make extra money
What was the site? With .af I bet it was a fun name
