I say the day Mozilla bends the knee to advertisers and do what Chrome did by phasing out ad-blockers with Firefox. That’ll be the day when I look around my apartment and realize “man, I need to start getting into some hobbies now.”

    Well… that would be hard. Maintaining, upgrading and extending a corner of the Internet is my day-job.

    So I guess the minimum would be that some other international communications network takes over and Swiss tertiary education institutes would all like to be connected to that instead of the Internet.

    Then all the multiplayer games I host for my international friend group would also have to support this new stack of protocols, same for my communications channels, most of all chat apps and email. Then I could also move my personal use cases off the Internet.

    Then I could be done with it.

    The real question is why would we ever do that, it sounds insanely costly, and not that much is wrong with IPv4 and IPv6.
