192.169.x.x will always be easier than fe80:x:x::x:x
I definitely agree with automatically configured stuff, but I enjoy setting link-local static IP address with IPv6, like my home server is
fe80::bad:c0de
or192.168.0.2
, and my NAS isfe80::coo1:da1a
or192.168.0.3
. I've definitely mistyped the IPv4 a few times (see your 169 typo), but the IPv6 always delivers hackerman vibes.I have also set
::bad:c0de
and have my IPv6 prefix on a keybind, but I understand that's a bit of a stretch.I have never thought of writing things with static ipv6.
