    Should probably fix that given we’ve been out of IPv4 for over a decade now and v6 is only becoming more widely deployed

      Agreed. Though I wonder if ipv6 will ever displace ipv4 in things like virtual networks (docker, vpn, etc.) where there’s no need for a bigger address space

        I hope so. I don’t want to manage two different address spaces in my head. I prefer if one standard is just the standard.

      Really? Haven’t had trouble allocating new VPSs with IPv4 as of late…

    Ipv4 is one of those things that works awesome, is simple, and is a victim of its own success. Ipv6 is just complicated bloat of a standard. Cool features, but nobody implements them, so useless.

    In 30 years, probably useful. Until then, I’m not giving up Ipv4.
