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.

.local is already used by mDNS/Zeroconf.

[–] x00z@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

You mean mDNS/Zeroconf are using a tld that was already being used.
