I’ve run a min ttl of 3600 on my home network for over a year. No one has complained yet.
- toast0 2y agoThat's only because there's no way for service operators to effectively complain when your clients continue to hit service ips for 55 minutes after you should. And if there was, we'd first yell at all the people who continue to hit service ips for weeks and months after a change... by the time we get to complaining about one home using an hour ttl, it's not a big deal.
- ectospheno 2y agoI take the point of view that if me not honoring your 60 second ttl breaks your site for me then I want to know so I stop going there.
