      See? If you don’t like DNS, you don’t have to use DNS, it’s not so hard.

      And IPv6 won’t be that much harder, it’s only… uh… 32 hex digits you’ll have to remember, for each website. No big deal.

        Did you know we have these things called computer files that can store information. There’s even one in your router specifically for storing IP addresses

          Ah, you’re right, I should just look up IP addresses in my NAT table. Maybe I should add comments to it so I know which IP is which.

            yep literally this. don’t most routers nowadays have a dns server with a hosts file you can edit?

              No no no, see, DNS is bad, that’s the whole point. No touchy.

              Can’t have any of that neoliberal stuff, gotta delete the hosts file.

          Ahh! The files are in the router!l

          Queue jumping up and down like a monkey trying to rip apart my router in order to reach a website

          Well, then someone would just create a directory that associates each ipv6 with the name of the company using it, so you can search for the easy to remember, human readable name which automa-

          Oh I see what happened here.

      30 years ago we had to remember phone numbers, now ip addresses. We are going in circles.
