Yes, traefik.me has had recurring DNS outages and reliability issues that have affected multiple Dokploy users [1]. This is likely a general problem with the service rather than something specific to your setup.

The root cause is that traefik.me is a free shared DNS service, and it's prone to:

• DNS query failures (ESERVFAIL errors)
• Let's Encrypt rate limiting (all *.traefik.me subdomains share the same 50-certificate-per-week quota)

Workarounds:

1. Use nip.io — the most commonly recommended alternative by the community and maintainers [1]
2. Use sslip.io — another free DNS alternative [1]
3. Configure a custom domain — set up an A record pointing to your server IP, bypassing traefik.me entirely

The Dokploy team has acknowledged these reliability issues and has been considering moving to nip.io or another service as a long-term solution [1].
