Although local is OK, this article makes the case that home.arpa should be the default. This post touches on it, but doesn’t make a big deal of it.
This is a relatively new standard, made in 2018, so many may not have heard of it.
I think home.arpa should be the default for the local domain zone for both dnsmasq and kresd instead of local.
I intend this topic to be informative, but also to ask if I should create a ticket for it in Github as perhaps a feature request?
