- vidarh 3y agoThe fact that there used to be a lot of alternative lower level network layers is incidentally also the best argument for IP: We needed a common shared layer because it was shit trying to gateway between multiple different protocols that user-level software had to know about. And as much as ethernet is dominant now, it's still not the only thing.
