My public IPv4 is something like 14.63.323.85, private is 192.168.1.2 (others are .3, .4, etc), DNS is 1.1.1.1.

My public v6 would be like 2345:0425:2CA1:2020:1100:0567:5673:23b5, private is fc00::::903A:1C1A:E802:11E4 (count them, four colons), DNS 2606:4700:4700::1111.

It's not that I don't like change, it's that I don't like changes that make things worse.

As someone who runs an ipv6-only network, I can't tell you what my prefix is off the top of my head because it's irrelevant.

Change is about more than just "how many numbers do I have to remember".

The numbers are the only change that's visible to me as a user.
