Meanwhile me who needs to pay 97 EUR / year for two V4 to V6 proxies so people not having (or disabling, ugh) V6 can connect to my stuff.

Actually those proxies are still cheaper than renting v4 address space for all my servers.

This. And also disable https. Those things just break all the time.

smileyhead , to programmer_humor in Roses are red, violets are blue, everyone is using IPv6, why aren't you?

By disabling both v4 and v6 you can fix 100% of the problems.

Those are just the same networking concepts as v4. Just 128 bits instead of 32. The hard thing can be ULA or SLAAC, which are like “yeah, just some random address to not get conflicts” and “yeah, first half your ISP gives you, second is taken from MAC address”.

We even get rid of a bunch loaded crap that holepunching v4 and making it work developed through years.

Maybe it seems hard, because what was used before was not really learned how it works but just relied on hacks.

that’s our ISPs’ problem

If the Internet means for you a way to access Facebook, Netflix, Google and YouTube, yeah.
But if it means a network to send something to another computer then it’s a huge problem.

Because ISP won’t care if you can accept connections or not. They don’t care about decentralization and being able to host stuff yourself. Most consumers just want a pipe to big services and not to their friend’s house.

Who needs an IP address anymore? What year is it? You want to connect to your friend’s computer and exchange some information via computer system, seriously? Just use Cloudflare, Google or Azure and route everything through them.

Imagine getting out of phone numbers, so the solutions is for everyone to call the last remaining people with public/routable numbers 24/7 so those people would redirect messages to others.

With Internet, users does not see that easly, but if you host anything for others it’s getting harder and harder to accept incoming connections without many layers of hacks to bypass hacks that ISPs do to keep IPv4 network working.

smileyhead , to programmer_humor in Roses are red, violets are blue, everyone is using IPv6, why aren't you?

Since I bought a domain name I do not remember IP addresses. Just like I don’t remember password since I installed password manager or not remember phone numbers since I have a smartphone.

It’s only annoying when being on someone’s else computer without my clipboard sharing setup and need to copy an address by hand. But that’s an issue when setting something up. I would take this inconvenience while setting up than all everyday inconveniences that IPv4 created in last years.

smileyhead , to linux in Would it be possible to install Linux on this HP Chromebook Plus?

I am almost certain that the OP was asking about standard GNU/Linux ecosystem borrowed from the desktop, not just some OS that happened to be build on top of modification of Linux kernel.

If it makes tracking hard to impossible then its BASED

But it does not make tracking impossible and only a little harder. From privacy standpoint it’s like using manditory VPN hosted by your carrier. And as we know, you must trust your VPN provider to not log.

And is it worth it? I would much more prefer to have real IP address and be able to host things in my house, including a full speed I2P node that would really make “tracing impossible”. Someone needs to host such nodes.

smileyhead , to memes in Maybe we can get good IPv6 support now

Privacy fans, choose wisely:

  • have CGNAT on carrier side and add little tiny more work to track people
  • have public IP, making it easier to selfhost, to build P2P networks, to use anonymizing network like I2P, to host Tor nodes, to reach out to friend without central approved big tech cloud, that you can still hide with your own NAT or by using VPN
smileyhead , to piracy in Most Efficient and Safe way to install Windows 10 on a old notebook at the moment?

Install Linux.

Install Windows 11 LTSC on virtual machine.

Profit.

I can’t even buy a movie anymore, so if I want to keep it I need to pirate.
