Oh I’m sure you can do heaps more with IPv6. And that’s great. I’m just saying to me it’s super complicated because I have to learn everything from scratch, and again those horrendous long and complicated hex addresses. If I can live my whole life without ever having to type or trying to remember an IPv6 address I’ll be a happy guy. IPv4 is super clean and easy at least on the level I’m using it. Those negative things you mention, I’ve never had to deal with any of that. Except port forwarding, but that’s easy and honestly I kinda like how that works for some reason.

But sure, you mention some pretty cool things there with IPv6 that could perhaps come in handy even for me at some point when I start doing more advanced things on my network. So I’ll keep that in mind for when that happens. And also, I guess I probably should learn more about IPv6 just to have the knowledge for when I might need it, wherever that may be. But ugh… lol
