ahmetozeron Show HN: We Implemented the IPv8 Internet-Draft in Linux, Libc, and BGP

Thanks for testing, in year 2026, still IPv6 is not fully well utilized homes, corporates especially it is worse at clouds (AWS, GCP) if you not limit north to south, they are not good for east-to-west compared to telco providers. For example, GCP uses IP forwarding for IPv6 real IP address is not allocated at machine. At some of the components which is EKS is not support every case at IPv6.

So IPv8 can be available around year 2300 I guess :) (i have not inspected v8 RFC yet)
