Why are you having to update your DNS records when you add a new service? Just set up a wildcard A record to send *.myserver.com to the reverse proxy and you never have to touch it again.

Not OP but a lot of people probably use pi-hole which doesn’t support wildcards for some inane reason

  That’s my case. I send every new subdomain to my nginx IP on pi-hole and then use nginx as a reverse proxy

    That wasy exact setup as well until I switched to a different router which supported both custom DNS entries and blocklists, thereby making the pi-hole redundant

    I run opnsense, so I need to dump pi-hole. But I don’t have the energy right now to do that.
    
    Pi-Hole was pretty straightforward at the time and I did not look back since then. Annoying, but easy.

  It does support it, you just have to add it to dnsmasq. I have it Setup under misc.dnsmasq_lines like so:
  
  address=/proxy.example.com/192.0.0.100 local=/proxy.example.com/
  
  Then I have my proxied service reachable under service.proxy.example.com
