Do you have a static IP? #5

A root CNAME record is generally a bad idea. It often prevents you from having NS/MX or any other records at the root name.

An A record would be much preferred, although it allows less flexibility if you move the service. Do you have an ip address that is unlikely to change?

The box that is currently running this service does not have a static IP. However, I do have another box that can host this (Digital Ocean with a floating IP)

I'll likely run a second instance of lightsaber there, with no support for the yml (so I don't have to worry about deploys)

Google offers a static anycast IP with the http(s) global load balancer. This might be interesting as a static endpoint. https://cloud.google.com/load-balancing/

Will be migrating lightsaber to my DO droplet this weekend
