I should take a closer look at pubky. I haven't really given it much time.

I know regular DNS pretty damn well. So I wonder what they're doing. Because there's massive trade-offs between using something like DHT vs DNS (I genuinely have no clue as to what the pubky is doing for DNS.) I've thought about trying to use DHT, but you still need some sort of bootstrapping mechanism for DHT, and it's inherently slower than DNS.
