- guilhas 2y agoHome users, or people serving ipv4 only, have no use for ipv6 Some ISPs, and routers, don't even process it correctly To avoid headaches, and extra work, disable ipv6
- fulafel 2y agoPeople incl home users have a lot of uses for e2e connectivity. But it's of course a self-fulfilling prophecy, when we make the internet more like TV ("receive only") the network effects curve down and people use less of it.
