Sounds pretty funny. Can’t wait to see what is hosted there.
I would guess either 50-50 it is a meme site or pron. No in between.
Sounds like a great way to curate a list of homelab targets. I’m good, thanks.
Was just thinking that it would be such a juicy target for so many things. I also shall pass on this one.
TLD’s aren’t the limitation… Public IPs are… If it wasn’t for Cloudflared, I couldn’t run half the shit I run.
I have a whole /56 of public IP addresses 😉
in an ideal world, ipv6 would solve that problem…
😔
I saw the rfc for IPV8 recently… It makes so much more sense than ipv6…and is backward compatible with ipv4…
Basically they’re proposing prefacing 4 more octets into an IP address, so 172.16.5.1 would become 0.0.0.0.172.16.5.1
Any existing IPs would just assume the 0.0.0.0 in front of them…
Again…solves the problem on much the same way.
Just fyi IPv8 was written by LLM with full on hallucinated citations and references. It isn’t being taken seriously by anyone.
It didn’t even make sense. It relies on DNS for nat and the like. Deranged networking plans from the non-mind of an LLM.
I recommend taking the time to learn IPv6 properly. It’s actually quite elegant and brings back the peer to peer, endpoint to endpoint connection ability of the old internet.
Oi…well that sucks ass. A good idea, badly conceptualized I guess.
I wouldn’t even say it was a good idea. Like the end to end NAT free internet is the ideal. IPv6 was built for that.
Even if IPv8 was not slop it would reenforce the idea of nat and hierarchy.
IPv6 allows for a democratized internet where anyone can choose to self host. And anyone can connect to anyone who is self hosting.
Because of this it’s a bit more complicated. But ideology it much better than IPv8. It brings us back what made the internet great in the 90s and 2000s, but at scale.
Probably true…but I just don’t see it taking off…
IPv6 is now peaking over 50% of all internet traffic globally and trending up. IPv4 is today the minority of internet traffic.
In some countries like France IPv6 over 85% of all internet traffic. In Germany over 75%. USA 57% of all traffic. India 76% of all traffic.
Not a fan of Google but they keep statistics on adoption.
I saw the RFC for IPv8 recently
nitpick, but I would say “an RFC”, as there’s been a number of these over the years
you’ve gotten a couple responses so far, but I think the central issue is that “complexity” isn’t the problem with IPv6 (and one could certainly argue that IPv6 is actually simpler)–the problem is compatibility. This article lays out the issue very well, and also links to this article (which is a more specific look at the IPv8 proposal you refer to). Both point to the same conclusion, which is that fundamentally–on first principles–existing hardware does not know how to handle the upgrade, which will require some sort of dual-stacking, which is the issue IPv6 currently has. (Not its technical merit.)
True, good point. AN RFC…
To be fair, I never got IPV6… was too confusing. I’ve always been able to rattle off IPv4 addresses in my sleep. IPV6 just wasn’t as natural.
That’s not how header backward compatibility works. IPv4 routers would discard the packet, not prepend zeroes.
it would obviously involve code updates for compability, and I don’t pretend to know how it would work long term, but it makes the most sense… By prepending the zeros, you expand the number of networks dramatically.
I would guess that no matter what, everything gets an upgrade… But I think this might make it more seamless.
Everyone seems to think that IPv6 is a complicated solution to a simple problem, it’s not. If you want to learn more, I managed to track down an article I read a while ago from one of the original IPng engineers. https://github.com/becarpenter/book6/blob/main/01. Introduction and Foreword/Why IPv6 is so complicated.md
we both thought of the same article haha

Sometimes these new TLDs are just odd. And the odder they are, the more expensive they are.
The proposal is for them to be free, restricted to one per person.
the pdf says a sub domain. which is something that could be provided by a single domain on an existing tld.
I interpret it as a subdomain of the top-level domain.
Given the context, the four “Follow Us” links going to proprietary services does seem somewhat antithetical to .self ideals.
At the very least set up a Mastodon account somewhere in addition to those.
upstream connect error or disconnect/reset before headers. reset reason: remote connection failure, transport failure reason: delayed connect error: Connection refusedYou, uh, might want to try that again.
But I did :'(
