Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

Perhaps I'm misunderstanding the term but I don't think what I described is split DNS. Split DNS is when the same DNS server resolves a name differently depending on the IP address of the client.
In the scenario I described the DNS servers involved do not discriminate, they always resolve the same names the same way.
The ability to discriminate at the client (to search specific DNS servers for specific domains) is not split DNS (although it's often incorrectly called that).
If this is what you meant then yes, it can be a bit of a headache. For example if you need to resolve local LAN names (.lan or .local), Tailscale names, and Docker names at the same time inside a container it can get a bit hairy.
You are right, I wanted to address two different issues and they sort of merged together in my head.
Carry on ;)
