I think you're confused because this link is somewhat deep down: https://help.kagi.com/orion/misc/linux-status.html

If you go up to https://help.kagi.com/orion/ it has this description:

> Orion is a free, lightning-fast, privacy-focused, WebKit-based browser for Mac, iOS, and soon Linux that blocks ads and trackers by default.

I really hope this is going to be entirely optional, but I know realistically it just won't be. If Rust is any example, a language that has optional async support, async will permeate into the whole ecosystem. That's to be expected with colored functions. The stdlib isn't too bad but last time I checked a lot of crates.io is filled with async functions for stuff that doesn't actually block.

Async clearly works for many people, I do fully understand people who can't get their heads around threads and prefer async. It's wonderful that there's a pattern people can use to be productive!

For whatever reason, async just doesn't work for me. I don't feel comfortable using it and at this point I've been trying on and off for probably 10+ years now. Maybe it's never going to happen. I'm much more comfortable with threads, mutex locks, channels, Erlang style concurrency, nurseries -- literally ANYTHING but async. All of those are very understandable to me and I've built production systems with all of those.

I hope when Zig reaches 1.0 I'll be able to use it. I started learning it earlier this month and it's been really enjoyable to use.

It's likely because there's a citation in a paper. That's apparently the bar you need to reach to get Wikipedia to see something as significant enough. I tried to get a draft article about SourceHut ( https://sourcehut.org/ ) to be published after extensive improvements and they refused because there weren't enough third party links. This is despite the fact there's like a dozen pages in Wikipedia about software that is hosted on SourceHut, so it seems notable enough?

Are you running the long-term (6.x) branch? RouterOS 7.x (stable) is much better at IPv6 as far as I know.

When was the last time you tried? I used to run into issues too but for a few years now it's basically "just worked".

Oh this hurts a lot. I don't know of a good alternative to this website. Other sites I've found either run fewer tests (so are less useful for debugging) or incorrectly claim I don't have IPv6 (I do?).

I don't suppose we can donate some money to keep this website up? Or perhaps some company like CloudFlare would like to host a mirror?

We're slowly making progress. We're almost at 50% IPv6 worldwide traffic to Google: https://www.google.com/intl/en/ipv6/statistics.html

Depending on what country you're in and what your traffic patterns look like, it might be higher. Some countries are >70% IPv6 traffic to Google.

Do you ever check your access logs to see when you're ready to go IPv6 only?

Yes and Finch wasn’t sure if what team Machine had done was a good thing, which is interesting given he’s usually so sure about resisting Samaritan

C++, as that was a reasonable choice in <=2008. Today, perhaps new projects should pick something else (likely Rust).

Bits of Firefox are written in Rust, so Chrome could in theory under go the same "oxidation" (gradually replace the C++ code with Rust).

Edit: Clarify that Chrome was released in 2008 but was likely in development for some time before that.

> it's easy to get a Green Card and citizenship

Can you provide some information on this? As far as I know, it's difficult to emigrate to the USA. If it's easy, I'd love to know more about that as I want to move there.
