I know that it's all configurable, what I meant is that some DNS providers may apply a long TTL by default, and it may be desirable to let users of Triweb know

I know that it's all configurable, what I meant is that some DNS providers may apply a long TTL by default, and it may be desirable to let users of Triweb know about this possible source of confusion.
- zzem 3y agoThe DNS name resolution is actually not done by your system or ISP, but by a DNS over HTTPs (DoH) service (Cloudflare 1.1.1.1 resolver). Cloudflare seems to be respecting the TTL as returned by the authoritative name server for your domain, so if you are able to specify a short TTL for a TXT record in your domain control panel, any changes made to the website should be live within that time.

For example, the Cloudflare DNS dashboard displays "auto" as a TTL by default, and one has no idea how many seconds "auto" is for a TXT record.
