Workable but no, not suitable. PowerDNS has a lot of features and isn't terrifically simple to deploy. DNSMasq is easier to deploy, but still has a lot of features and isn't easy to configure.
The niche I'm aiming for is for people who just want to map hostnames to IP addresses. And note this isn't a commercial offering, just something I built for myself that I'm going to put up a website for and maybe some other people will find interesting. I do think I have some product-market fit because even among my dev friends, who are all quite talented, many of them have mentioned to me "yeah I threw bind9 on a server but decided I didn't hate typing IPs enough to actually set up and operate it".
I'm aiming for zero onboarding time and zero maintenance headache. You run a docker container, map the ports, and then there's a nice web UI that takes you the rest of the way.
