I have a domain name. Setting up subdomains and binding it to addresses is non-trivial.
I have to figure out all the business of anames and MX records and how to set up a subdomain.
And considering that routers issue ipv4 addresses automatically, offer user-friendly GUIs for binding addresses to devices and forwarding ports, it's not really comparable is it?
- dpark 8y agoYou are not comparing apples to apples here. You’re talking about setting up MX records vs memorizing an IPv4 address. There is no way that pxtl@random-IPv4-address is how you’re handling your email. If you can run a server securely on the public internet, you can set up a domain name. To pretend otherwise is a little absurd. Frankly if you can’t set up a domain properly in DNS, you probably can’t successfully manage to forward a port to your server anyway.
