Can someone considerably smarter than me, with time to spare, please just find a way to federate/decentralize DNS.
I can fathom that it is complicated, maybe even impossible in the current setup, but the internet we all grew to love dies a little bit more each time the mouth breathers try to restrict it on behalf of capitalism.
Maybe remembering ip addresses can fill the void of not having to remember phone numbers anymore?
I mean, as far as I know, DNS is decentralized. Anyone can host their own DNS server, or change which server their network/device uses. Google's is just very commonly used because 8.8.8.8 is easy to remember, but there are thousands of others run by entities big and small, and there's nothing stopping you from running your own (assuming you manage to get a hold of a static IPv4)
Do I need a static ip if I plan to only use it locally from my home network?
If you're only going to use it from within your own LAN, then no, you don't need a static public address
