Context:

People have been asking for IPv6 Support on GitHub since years (probably a decade by now)

Because I can remember an IPv4 address and not a V6 address!

At least they could have added an extra octet to v4 instead of making it garbyremoved looking

You are not expected to remember a v6 address - or even v4 for that matter. They are designed for machines. DNS is designed for humans.

This is a good (and fair) point.

However they still look ugly and scary and intimidating :)
