Its worth looking at the alt text of the xkcd itself: In the 60s, Marvin Minsky assigned a couple of undergrads to spend the summer programming a computer to use a camera to identify objects in a scene. He figured they'd have the problem solved by the end of the summer. Half a century later, we're still working on it.

many proprietary protocols iterate themself out of existence, just because some of them survive does not mean its the better model. Look at the video codec space, proprietary codes have long lost and have gone the way of Real Media, Windows Media Video and many others. While H.26X which is the result of design by committee are used everywhere.

Its mostly impossible to run servers only with IPv6 since for some reason Canonical/Ubuntu decided to require IPv4 for snap, after years of not having any issues with IPv6 only deb mirrors.

Go is also basically bound to IPv4 since it depends on github to pull packages

its time to make hall of shame for software that does not allow developers to build IPv6 only going forward.

Its more like they fucked it up with some AI driven A/B testing and think they are doing the right thing but actually its just all broken now.

They used to have /ncr (no country redirect) - open that in incognito mode and you have to accept some TOS in a language based on some idea of where the IP is.
