why we built it

we got tired of forgetting the exact dig flags every time we wanted clean txt records. dotdig is dig with the formatting we always wanted and the flag soup we never did.

no telemetry. no signup. no api round-trip — talks straight to the resolver. mit forever, even if vøiddo dies tomorrow.
