This is very cool. In the age if bloated JS frameworks and Bulky Desktop sites loaded on Mobile devices, its refreshing to see someone putting efforts to make the pages fit in a single MTU.
We serve thousands of custom domains for our SaaS customers.
The end users of these domains are globally distributed and served from 14 different data centre locations across the world.
To do the geo IP matching we tried a lot of things, third party services etc but couldn't find one that works well and are priced well.
For example, the hosted DNS service we use also have a IP based filter chain feature but are priced around $22 per domain per month as add-on.
At the end, we built a anycast based solution that was very painful to setup but works fine now and can use a single A record that works across the world. We had a get a ASN, a /24 block and hell lot of back n forth with a government run org to set it up.
A "hosted" scriptable DNS server which takes the location as input and output IP of nearest edge server as output is the exact thing I needed. So yes there is definitely a niche market for it.
I still have to explore and see how closely bunnydns is able to get the source IP/location (tricky) and how does health check etc could work but definitely something I would explore and consider.
