I have some subdomains that go to my home address (I know I should put it through a VPS first but I’ll get to that when I have time).

If I connect to example.domain.tld and DNS records point back to my own IP, where does that data go to reach back to my device?

    I had issues with that recently, I had a few of my internal services set to resolve internally, but pihole was making a mess of them and returning IPv6 addresses in addition to the IPv4 internal addresses. And then browsers would try use the broken ipv6 address and fail. I just happily rely on hairpinning now, it hardly makes a difference in the scheme of things.
