That said, I&#39;ve never directly won or lost money based on its success or failure.<br/><br/>Given that the vast majority of complaints about IPv6 relate to it changing too many things, and *that* being why it&#39;s not getting adopted (which it is, despite that), I get a bit suspicious of pie-in-the-sky theories about how IPv6 didn&#39;t go far enough with changing how networks work. 2026-07-08T19:54:57Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqsxyqvtlml9w7xe396gqfdng092ch9z33nm5ztq93d4mpx6squu7sszyp0e7gd9fzndrhtkm9408lk8pwa2434nf78w9gu023nz9ycp85hk6kfqg80 In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsq90rqleg46gyfjh59rhlyyknc4kl5m5nek8g3ae8g4f0kdzy67kswduj67'>nevent1q…uj67</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Inconsistently, but fair. India is absolutely kicking our butts at v6 adoption. Conversely, progress in Africa is slow-going, which is unfortunate, given how absolutely screwed that continent got when it comes to IPv4 addresses.<br/><br/>I would suggest that there&#39;s more incentive in the global south because Carrier-Grade NAT is the norm there (or anywhere else where the v4-per-capita is atrocious). The US (and others) doesn&#39;t suffer as much from that, at least on the wireline side. 2026-07-08T15:09:31Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqs0pymu44hre58qszn6nexpmq4mkcdgzgaf24j6cv644rmjlqul7sqzyp0e7gd9fzndrhtkm9408lk8pwa2434nf78w9gu023nz9ycp85hk666wv4k In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsweqdgfzxfdxvquuk4mptze6hxl2ytjmjvcvt5hwqwzj7cdp8ps8qp4f798'>nevent1q…f798</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Meanwhile, v6 is bumping up to the 50% mark, globally (if Google is to be believed 😉), despite decades of outcry that the world doesn&#39;t want or need it.<br/><br/>👀<br/><br/>...which is to say, yes, I would accept the label &#34;IPv6 boffin,&#34; whether applied affectionately or disparagingly. 😀 2026-07-08T14:51:33Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqsweqdgfzxfdxvquuk4mptze6hxl2ytjmjvcvt5hwqwzj7cdp8ps8qzyp0e7gd9fzndrhtkm9408lk8pwa2434nf78w9gu023nz9ycp85hk6p9z7kf In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqspljvnet0pvpkwdtgf4m2jh8rgk5vnjxz04y5azt849wfg7qdysds6gapkf'>nevent1q…apkf</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>The bigger issue to draft-thain-ipv8 is that despite being a more ambitious endeavor than IPv6, it&#39;s too little, too late. Any IPv4 replacement would take 10-15 years to reach the level of maturity where any given OS would be presumed to support it. We saw that in the mid-2000s with IPv6. Does the IPv4 have another 10-15 years of viable lifetime in it to wait for a new protocol to roll out, as slowly (if not slower, for other reasons) as it took IPv6? 2026-07-08T14:51:22Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqspljvnet0pvpkwdtgf4m2jh8rgk5vnjxz04y5azt849wfg7qdysdszyp0e7gd9fzndrhtkm9408lk8pwa2434nf78w9gu023nz9ycp85hk6ex63a2 In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsphdtrpqdwh80y6ywsapk970vx7tsnx8fkaysk7ss4ukw3fpu4zesug8hvc'>nevent1q…8hvc</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>IPv6 *has* backward compatibility with IPv4, by way of NAT64, which has been around for 15+ years.
