Zak on Nostr: I'm self-hosting a lot of things these days, but one thing that I'm still terrified ...
I'm self-hosting a lot of things these days, but one thing that I'm still terrified to do is start hosting my own DNS resolver. I know that people do it and it's probably not even that hard. But the idea of something breaking and then having to troubleshoot anything to do with DNS fills me with dread.
