> Literally everything about IPv6 is easier and better

That's not true, at a simple level typing "ping 10.34.56.22" is far easier than "ping df99:eff2:245a:46vv:2cmm:dfaa:41ff:2211"

The benefits of ipv6 may outweigh ipv4, but by claiming "everything is easier and better" is disingenuous and a reason so many still refuse to move.




Your example is mostly a non-issue if you have working DNS. Which ... I know is a big assumption in a lot of networks, especially small to medium sized businesses, it seems. I don't know why DNS is such an issue for so many companies, but I can't help but think people would be more positive about ipv6 if we could get internal DNS solved first.


You may think it's a none issue, however it simply disproves the "literally everything" hyperbole
