    What dream? A domain’s quite practical for self-hosting one’s own server for all sorts of things. Doesn’t have to be the “next big thing”. This is the way the internet used to be.

      Right? A little script auto to update your DNS records assuming you don’t have a static IP, now you can remote in much easier. And don’t have to memorize your IP.

      I’ve been meaning to get one to use as a fixed email, even if I change the underlying email provider. Not able to select a domain name though ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ naming is always the hardest part
