If you run your own DNS resolver for your local network, you can use a Discovery Proxy (RFC 8766) to allow unicast DNS resolution of multicast DNS records. I'm using mdns-discovery-proxy[0] (slightly modified to support a newer version of the zeroconf Python library) with a forward-only zone rule in bind9 so that xyz.local is mirrored in unicast DNS as xyz.home.arpa. The latter address will work for any program on the network regardless of mDNS support.
