@bekopharm .local is reserved and safe, and intended to be used with mDNS (which is implemented in "Bonjour" and "Avahi" and is sometimes referred to as "zeroconf", although that's not quite the correct term). 🤓

@sindastra @bekopharm I agree that you wouldn't want to use ".local" as a DNS domain tho. That way leads to annoying device discovery failure, such as printers not working.

@sindastra@chaos.social @bekopharm@social.tchncs.de is there anything wrong with using subdomains under .local outside of mDNS?
