I'm guessing the reason they think it would have been better is that right now the headaches are from us being a weird limbo state where we're kinda out of IPv4 addresses but also not really at the point where everything supports IPv6 out of necessity. If the "kinda" were more definitive, there would potentially have been enough of a forcing factor that everyone make sure to support IPv6, and the headaches would have been figured out.
- Ericson2314 1y agoAgreed. Also, fun fact, the Google IPv6 tracker says we're about to reach 50%. Time to throw s party!
- throw0101d 1y ago> 50% As global average: some countries are above 50% already. (Mobile devices are probably a big part of that.)
- Ericson2314 1y agoYup! Least bad thing about smartphones, lol.
- zokier 1y agoCloudflare Radar has separate mobile vs desktop ipv6 adoption stats. Globally mobiles have 45% ipv6, desktops 37%. In US mobiles have 60% vs desktops 46% https://radar.cloudflare.com/explorer?dataSet=http&groupBy=ip_version&filters=botClass%253DLIKELY_HUMAN%252CdeviceType%253DMobile https://radar.cloudflare.com/explorer?dataSet=http&groupBy=i...
- connicpu 1y agoCGNAT is playing a big role. More and more people across the planet are sharing an IPv4 address with dozens or even hundreds of other customers of their ISPs.
