@miah never did!

I use #OpenNIC:

@kkarhan

I used to self-host my own DNS server using FreeBSD and had it go straight to the root DNS nameservers. Does anyone ever do that anymore that we know of?

[EDIT: To anyone coming across this: Don't do this. It's not a good idea. I stopped doing this over a decade ago. :)]

@0xF21D no, unless you account for #datacenters and #OpenNIC members like @fusl ...

@kkarhan @0xF21D A lot of people actually run recursive DNS servers at home but I recommend against doing that for reasons explained here: https://wiki.opennic.org/opennic/tier2#can_i_run_it_from_home

@fusl @kkarhan makes sense. You also don't want everyone just pointing to the root servers.
