Thanks but I hardly needed anyone permission to not use that. .local still works just fine.
It just means .internal won’t be relayed out on the internet, as it will be reserved for local only.
I’ve had issues with .local on my Android device. Straight up doesn’t work. I had to change to .lan
I think it was only added in android 12.
Same here, just stumbled across this issue yesterday when I tried to restructure my network to use .local
Except when it doesn’t. It can have issues around multicast dns.
I used to use .local but mDNS can get confused, .home has been fine though
Good luck with that. .local is reserved for mDNS calls, and not every OS treats it the same way. Ask me how I know.
Been working fine for me for twenty years or more in a mixed environment.
