    I mean… OK then just remember the IP addresses of the sites you use and don’t use the domain names?

        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?

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