Is a droplet hostname reachable via DNS?
Prior to creating a droplet one must first choose a hostname for said droplet. Is this hostname reachable over DNS (i.e. is it announced via ns1/ns2/ns3.digitalocean.com) such that I can SSH into myhostname.digitalocean.com?

It works for me. I use my droplet as a workstation (SSH+tmux+vim).
It’s only “reachable” if you have your domain registrar point your domain’s name servers to DO’s name servers (as you seem to have already done).
