We are missing out on so much network innovation due to the lack of IPv6 support. This innovation is increasingly needed to become less dependent on big tech.
Isn't it amazing that we have platform independent technology that allows you to call someone _on their IP address_? Or have someone start selling delivery pizza's independently by running an app that listens on port 80? What about a garage door opener that responds within 30ms instead of going through several cloud services first?
I use them on a daily basis, but I have my doubts about the health aspects. They have literal rough edges. I had to throw 10% away because I hurt myself while cleaning them and they are hard to clean.
On the streets I saw some buildup dirtiness behind those edges directly below the part you touch with your mouth.
Moreover, they are cooled down during the production process in the ashes, so they are very dirty when delivered.
