It would have been nice if they came up with something shorter like .lan.
Use it anyway.
You go to networking jail for that.
Shit, let’s hope the ICANN cops don’t find me out then… I’ve been using it for years!

Sorry. I chose .local and I’m sticking to it.
I switched from .local to .honk and I’m never looking back.

Mainly conflicts with mDNS. However it’s shitty IMHO that the mDNS spec snarfed a domain already in widespread use, should have used .mDNS or similar.
Why do I care what ICANN says I can do on my own network? It’s my network, I do what I want.
