I've talked to people that earnestly hold this view and want everything to be on top of udp.
- rakoo 11y agoWell, there is QUIC and Mosh seems to be working quite well so it is true that UDP may make more sense in certain use cases.
- Tiksi 11y agoYeah there are definitely use cases where UDP makes sense and they're far from rare, but that doesn't mean TCP should be thrown out since there are still many cases where a reliable connection based protocol is better.
- feld 11y agoTCP doesn't really provide the reliability that people assume it does. UDP is often used because it is expected that the connection will be unreliable.
