I own my e-mail identity without running a server (via DNS MX records). This is not possible with Mastodon (which relies on WebFinger).

- tedunangst 3y agoCNAME records are a thing.
- colanderman 3y agoYou cannot have any other record on a domain with a CNAME. Not workable if you have any other service (say, e-mail) tied to your domain. SRV records are the correct solution, but neither WebFinger nor Mastodon chose to use them.
