I thankfully have never had the misfortune of cgnat
Yeah dropping Nat is the biggest net benefit I agree but I think the avg person won’t really find that much value in it when Nat works ok
Your prefix can change yes but the recommendation is that it shouldn’t in practice. You’ll find ISPs doing it right will extend your PD lease infinitely unless you release it for a long enough period of time. Similar to ipv4.
The privacy is similar to ipv4 also. All your traffic on ipv4 looks like it’s coming from your WAN IP… Your PD is in this sense equivalent (though not literally equivalent for all the pedants reading) to your WAN IP.
It’s honestly super simple to set up. Outside of your ISP config it’s almost all autoconfig. 100% of the complication (at least for me) comes from knowing ipv4 first for 20 years and then trying to incorrectly map those concepts to V6.
As soon as I “let go” it was fine.
There’s not a huge net benefit you’re right. I mostly wanted to learn and I hope to be at the front edge of disabling ipv4 in the near distant future.
I agree with this but I would say the prefix is the only thing you should focus on.
It’s important that ISPs don’t regularly rotate your PD and it’s part of the rfc recommendations that they don’t. And the remainder of the prefix is your vlan space that is as important for VLAN routing as always.
Ipv6 requires fundamental rethinking about how addressing is done. If you’re trying to apply v4 concepts to V6 you likely end up running into something they intentionally designed out.
A unique local address is an address space where you could do that. It’s the equivalent to RFC1918 eg. 172/192/10. So you could statically assign fd0::x, and that is expected, but not required generally.
I wouldn’t give each device a static unique global address unless they need to be accessed via wan without domain consistently. You lose device privacy really quickly that way because every device gets a unique globally routable address. It’s fine for internet facing services but most Linux, Windows, and mobile implementations are using ipv6 privacy extensions by default to ensure you get a random GUA every day.
My network is dual stack and I connect mostly over ipv6 to all my internal clients using internal DNS. If my internal DNS is ever down I can fall back to ipv4 or it’s basically the one box on my network with an easy to remember ULA.
Yeah, that’s basically right. With an opening line like mine (a formula), we’re basically dealing in typical reddit/lemmy pedanticism.
I (somewhat ironically now) specifically chose the words MFA over 2fa when saying “mfa-1” as to be most encompassing from the get go because yes:
i do agree the 1st factor in a situation where its multiple factors is generally and common practice to be something you know.
MFA is not necessarily only 2 factors and single factor is not necessarily a password.
Your mfa is now mfa-1
Super cool!!
It’s all dependent on what you’re doing and how. Like if you use Facebook you’re fingerprinted to the tits.
The granularity depends on examples like that.
But something a bit more benign and not as granular would be finger printing you based on the timezone your browser offers up. It’s not as basic as like “-7 GMT” since the iso list can go down to the state and or country. So if in your OS you picked “America/Houston” a lot of browsers will pony that up without hesitation.
How many more bits of data until you know what city I’m in, Street I’m on. Etc. And there’s tons of ways to derive that data over time.
https://browserleaks.com/ is an interesting example that can show all the bits of data your browser can give up.
And of course you can lock lots down given the right tools.
Web Location tracking has not been fully based on IP registration data for quite some time.
The irony isn’t lost on me but the comments show it wasn’t that simple. If it was they surely would have done it.
It doesn’t really surprise me that a self hosted project cant afford to self host it’s own self or be able to find a neutral hosting location.
I don’t use linux on desktop anymore but that seems like a major step backwards from 10 years ago where your worst worry for running multiple DEs was the bloat from having to run GTK and QT in a mixed environment.
Isn’t that the whole point? But no to the latter question. Your shoes rub your toes but you probably forget about it after a while. Ever wear sandals? There’s comfy pairs and uncomfy pairs.
Yes they even have to consider things like accessibility for disabled. It’s not all trickery. Not to say shrinkflation isn’t a problem I don’t want to ruin the circle jerk but not everything fits.
Are you gatekeeping gatekeeping now?
