Actually HN is available via IPv6 over Cloudflare. You have to add a CF IPv6 it to the hosts file. In fact I am posting this comment over IPv6.

- cryptonector 4y ago> hosts file 1986 wants a word.
- miyuru 4y agoI actually run a separate DNS proxy that does it automatically for me. (HN and lot of other sites) I only mentioned hosts file because it is the easiest way to spoof the domain.
- cryptonector 4y agoThat's still the same thing: you're manually adding a mapping where you shouldn't have to. HN should just publish the AAAA RRs and be done.
- trynewideas 4y ago> You have to add a CF IPv6 it to the hosts file. That's worse, yeah? You do see how that's worse?
- mort96 4y agoYour comment has no useful information.
- lzaaz 4y agoPut this in your /etc/hosts file and it should work (I don't know if it does as I don't have ipv6) 2a06:98c1:3120::5 news.ycombinator.com
- jeroenhd 4y agoCan confirm, works like a charm!
- mort96 4y agoWhich is not useful information in this discussion.
- dang 4y agoOk, but please don't respond to a bad comment (or one you feel is bad) by posting bad comments yourself. That only makes everything worse. A better way to counter comments that don't contain useful information would be to add some useful information; or perhaps to post a question explaining what information is missing and asking for it. https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html
- watt 4y agoThe fact anyone should think this is somehow acceptable state of art is obscene to me.
