It was part of their networking rework. Presumably to improve stability of the website. I've also been told that it was a big step towards enabling IPv6 for HN.

There are other parts of Y Combinator that still use Cloudflare though.

HN hasn't been fronted by Cloudflare since July.

They're working on it.

While GCP has IPv6 support for their global load balancers, it's very limited and not sufficient for many uses.

For example, I've been working on contributing IPv6 support to GitLab.com [0], which is hosted on GCP. Turns out it's impossible for the main site right now, because none of the global load balancer types allow port 22, which is used for Git traffic. I've no idea why there are even such restrictions, but there's of course a "feature" request for allowing port 22 [1]. I was able to repurpose the work for other parts of GitLab.com, but I've yet to get even those to work, due to the load balancers gobbling up HTTPS/SSL requests [2].

Yes, but not always. In my country (Estonia) the biggest ISP (Telia) provides IPv6 for home connections, but not on the mobile network.

As for Reliance Jio, they have over 300 million IPv6 users, with a total IPv6 adoption of 88% [0][1].

A year back the party decreed a plan to have all Internet users on IPv6 by 2025, with a quarter of them already by the end of this year [0]. There was a test rollout back at the beginning of the summer [1]. I guess we might see a huge rollout before the end of the year to meet the deadline. There's been a slight rebound already [2][3].

They started rolling out IPv6 in a couple areas a few weeks ago [0].

Because of people not working. IPv6 deployement on consumer internet providers is much higher than those of corporate environments.

Lack of IPv6 on corporate networks isn't very surprising, considering how hard/annoying enabling it is for business connections [0].

There's also IPvFoo[0] for those on Chrome (it supports Firefox too, but is a bit buggier there).

Here's a graph from Google's IPv6 statistics: [0]

Not really. They turned it on for an increasing number of customers during a single week and then turned it off for most of them, but still ended up with more IPv6-enabled customers than before. As explained in the Cloudflare blog post [0], this is common when testing IPv6 deployement before complete rollout.

The 28 were incorrectly indetified, because they ran their tests using default settings, which aren't fit for such an use case.

It's worth noting that the AMP version supports IPv6, unlike arstechnica.com itself.

That was the recommendation before the microcode fixes for the issue became widely available.

I've messaged HN, and they said it's near the top of their list and will be fixed soon.

You could always host the open-source variant (Community Edition) of GitLab on your server.

It's no longer vulnerable to variant 2 and 3.[1]

Meanwhile official Erlang website's certificate is invalid.

Have what as an exemption? Not applying GDPR to small-time open source projects? Being open source doesn't suddenly make it fine to mishandle users' information.

> You've just redirected one of your legitimate users to the attacker.

I interpreterd it as being redirect back to your own address. E.g if I'm an attacker and my IP is [FE80::2], then I'd be redirected to [FE80::2]. Same for an user. And if you've got attackers from 10k IPs, then I'd think it'd be unlikely that you'd single out a single attacker IP.

Neither supports IPv6 officially, though.

GitHub Pages actually had IPv6 support, but they removed it, because they added HTTPS support (that's what their support said). But I checked and the old IPv6 CDN endpoints actually still work, even with HTTPS.

Netlify actually has also promised IPv6 support "at the start of the year"[0], but I wouldn't count it.

Per the article:

I'm aware.

I'm aware that Ubuntu uses Gnome now. But it's especially annoying now, that I know Gnome has got functionality for it, but they didn't bother to add an option for it in the settings for normal users.

He did just quit Tesla after a short time there and re-joined Intel.

Still no option to disable mouse acceleration? Come on! Default Gnome has had an option for it for multiple years already.

Maybe they could change Chrome to allow autoplay videos, which have no audio? Would make them very much functionally equivalent to GIFs.

Why do you think they were blaming the client? They simply expressed the desire for a feature to help remedy a problem caused by humans.
