Comment on Automatically publish .local addresses from Docker Compose labels

I know some are vehemently against the use of .local for a home network. It would be nice to be able to set a custom TLD like .home or .lan (these don’t have any special meaning or usage as of now).

This project uses mDNS, which is specific to the .local TLD. The whole reason that people are against the use of .local is because it would break mDNS. So you can’t set a custom TLD, but it doesn’t matter because this is actually the correct context for .local to be used.

If you prefer, I think Avahi is able to publish other TLDs, but I played around with it just now and couldn’t get it to work. If you have any luck, happy to add support :)
