Yeah, I don't really have a use at home for mDNS. None that I can think of, anyway. Pretty sure I was using it before MDNS was a thing.
Comment on ICANN approves use of .internal domain for your network
xcjs@programming.dev 3 months agoI was using .local, but it ran into too many conflicts with an mDNS service I host and vice versa. I switched to .lan, but I’m certainly not going to switch to .internal unless another conflict surfaces.
I’ve also developed a host-monitoring solution that uses mDNS, so I’m not about to break my own software. 😅

Accessing printers? Resolving hostnames of internal hosts? I can’t imagine having a lan without mDNS

Oh. Internal hosts, I just setup on my own DNS.. No need for that. Printer, can't say I've ever had a problem.

.internal takes to long to type
xcjs@programming.dev 3 months ago
Yeah, that’s why I started using .lan.
