Why should I use IP6 in my small home network?

Or in an SMB where there are less than 100 IP's used on a daily basis?

First I have to pay the cost of transition, along with the risk of things not working while I do this, and then the risk of something new being added and not working.

There's simply no value in these environments to switching, and a lot of risk.

Now let's look at Enterprise, where you have thousands of desktops, probably thousands of servers, extensive networking that already works (along with many, many devices that don't support IP6, like printers, scanners, access control devices, surveillance hardware, etc, etc). Are you going to pay the tens of millions to transition, and assume the risk?

IP6 is good for backbone right now. It will slowly transition into LAN for larger environments (think Enterprise when they setup new network segments, since they're buying new hardware anyway. But only after extensive testing.

But IP4 is just fine for small networks, and I don't see any reason for IP6, ever, for home and SMB LAN.

And shortcuts are it's intended behaviour, always has been.

You're making a distinction without a meaning.

You can do that yourself, since Chicago first debuted in ~1994.

I don't want my OS categorizing stuff for me.

My start menu is categorized on the root (where "pinned" items go), and I leave the rest of the menu alone.

Really?

My Logitech mice won't work, at all under Linux unless I go find a third party software to make them work.

While under Windows they just work, even without the Logitech config software.

And they still do that so poorly.

And even where it's a factor, local code will (slowly) reflect actual capability.

Ive lived in several states, a few which get snow, even the heavy wet kind. Even there code permits up to 3 layers, depending on how the roof is constructed.

Boy, I'm so glad Google doesn't want us sideloading apps, I fee so much safer using play. (Yes, that's sarcasm)

Coffee and cigarettes 😁

Pixel is clean, from a battery saver perspective, so that's probably not your issue.

Not sure what to do next. I've used it for about 10 years now, and keep gobs of stuff in sync with it.

I do recommend Syncthing-Fork for Android, it moves the sync conditions into the individual since folders, so you get finer control.

Do you get any errors on the desktop console? On Android, if you launch the web client you get much more info and configuration capability (Menu - Web GUI). Once there, click the gear at the top right, and open Logs. Maybe there's something there that can help.

Exactly.

They don't care, so just shoot whatever has sat in the gun since the last time I ordered a G&T.

That's a good point. LEDs dislike unstable power a LOT more than incandescent or fluorescent.

I have Cree, Amazon and IKEA. Those all seem to last about the same.
