- SkyMarshal 14y agoHow is it better?
- p1mrx 14y agoHere are the primary reasons why IPvFoo is better: - It doesn't send every domain you visit to a third-party server. - It shows whether you're actually using IPv6, not just whether a AAAA record exists. - It shows you all the page elements, not just the top level. - It's Free Software.
- jack12 14y agoOh, nice work! There really isn't much point in running an indicator if it's just doing a DNS lookup to _guess_ if you were using IPv6, it covers up mistakes too easily. So it's nice to see it done properly, and the way you show the protocols of additional hosts is really slick too. The indicators all just being AAAA or not instead of IPv6 or not was my main complaint last time I tried what was available on Firefox, but your comment lead me to the Firefox clone of IPvFoo: IPvFox. Thanks!
