My preference for local TLDs is just .x because it takes less time to enter on mobile devices. An example is www.x or video.x. Yes, it does require a cert for TLS and that cert will not be trusted by default. I have found that with OpenSSL and a proper script you can spin up a cert chain on the fly and you can make these certs trusted in both Windows and Linux with an additional script. A script cannot make for trusted certs in Safari on OSX though. I figured all this out in a prior personal app. In my current web server app I just don’t bother with trust. I create the certs and just let the browser display its page about high risk with the accept the consequences button. It’s a one time choice.
