What output are you getting if you run `dig paperless.local` on your
desktop? Do you get the correct IP?

It sounds like a DNS issue on your desktop, since you can access the
service via IP. I'd take another look at those settings. :)

Best of luck!

I'm not well-versed with this command but all looks in order.
Paperless.local is associated with [10.0.0.8](https://10.0.0.8), my
reverse proxy IP, and the DNS server is
[10.0.0.18](https://10.0.0.18), which is AdGuard
