Love the label 😂
But ugh, ipv6 is haaarrrrd
How hard would it have been to just add another octet or two? I like using my 10key and if I have to type letters for an IP address it's a bad system.
Not to mention that we can “visualize” the segments and networks by the numbers. Makes it easier to recognize, as an analogy,
This state, that city, this road, that house.
Versus ipv6. Of course there’s so much space in v6 that it isn’t an issue except it’s such a pain to work with for people who tend to think in ipv4 octets and bit masks
