Thanks for the heads up, home page or any page in particular? It’s ok for me but I’ll check the logs. It’s just a basic fly.io setup at the moment but it should be more than capabl…

Show HN: Automatic Domain Verification

Thanks for this really interesting feedback – especially that the subdomain method could create more opportunities for cache poisoning. Interested to explore how a cache poisoning …

Interesting idea. If I understand correctly, let’s say a popular CDN was no longer maintained and the domain expired, eg popularcdn.com - you’re looking for a way to use a dns reco…

That’s correct, we have a couple of projects that use DNS TXT for storing data and JSON and TXT records are not a good fit. My description above references compactdata, which as yo…
