My experience of it was many years ago when first trying out Linux
seriously and I spotted it amongst the list of services that were
running. After googling the name and realising what it was I hurriedly
uninstalled it, because at that time the zero-conf stuff seemed to be
cropping up regularly in the IT news in a bad way, with malware
exploiting weaknesses in Window and routers implementation of it. I
also have a general aversion to computers tying to doing magic things
behind my back.

I can't see what the problem with DHCP is, if I want to have static IP
addresses or use names to identify machines on the network, I can take
a minute to add a line to dnsmasq.conf on my router. I know some people
say that DHCP is a single point of failure, or they don't want to run
extra hardware 24/7, but I would think most of us already have a router
providing internet access that can do DHCP. And if that fails, have a
spare (even if it's just an old device) that can be pressed into
immediate use. I for one consider internet access sufficiently
important to make fixing it a priority.
