Hacker News Reader

It's usually not a tehnical problem, but either a management or a budget problem.

Hacker news also does not support IPv6

This is one of the reasons why I'm trying to avoid Github these days. If they can't get something as simple as IPv6 to work, I don't have much faith in the test of their backend either.

Sort of a weird take. I doubt if the people responsible for testing their backend have ever even met the people who would migrate to ipv6

There's plenty of attention on the Github meta issue about the lack of IPv6 (https://github.com/orgs/community/discussions/10539) so anyone who even glances at customer requests should be aware of the issue at the very least.

They also did offer IPv6 availability for a short while as a test, but that was quickly shut down, so there is probably a technical issues they can't figure out or they would've kept the trial system running for longer.

Either way, Github isn't communicating, so it's hard to tell if this is indifference or incompetence. As an end user, the distinction doesn't really matter.
