  • Why would I need to remember an ip address if I have a hostname? I don’t know my ipv4 anywhere since it’s all dynamic.

    Standards like those change just fine. Sure some stuff uses ascii still, but almost everything I encounter is unicode. Email has had so many things added on over the years that that’s not a fair comparison either. Other countries have plenty of kb layouts that are more popular locally than qwerty but came afterwards.

    At some point ipv6 will be the default and we’ll just use compatibility layers to access ipv4 only things. We don’t need every device on board, just the ISPs
