The main problem I have is waking up in the middle of the night worrying that ICANN pulled some more stupid corrupt bullshit that only makes networking worse and breaks my config.
Just look elsewhere in this thread: someone thinks that using .honk as a joke is safe. But what about .horse? .baby? .barefoot? .cool? (I stopped scrolling through the list at this point but you can see how arbitrary and idiotic things have become.)
Sorry. I chose .local and I’m sticking to it.
I still haven’t heard a convincing argument to not use .local and I see no reason to stop.
Mainly conflicts with mDNS. However it’s shitty IMHO that the mDNS spec snarfed a domain already in widespread use, should have used .mDNS or similar.
Tell me you don’t share a net with Macs without using those words.
.local is already used by mDNS/Zeroconf.
You mean mDNS/Zeroconf are using a tld that was already being used.
I went with .home and so far the problems are within reason
I’m using .home and have not had any issues. Would you mind sharing what problems you’ve come across so I know what to expect?
