    Am I wrong or is this just a lot of words when they could have used c-ares? 🤔

      getaddrinfo sucks. everything else is much worse
      DNS is one of the critical building blocks of the internet and of the modern web. For the longest time the only way for Firefox to resolve a DNS domain was by using getaddrinfo. What's remarkable about this function is that it's implemented on Linux, Windows, MacOS - even Android. It has the same signature, and works in roughly the same way, even though the implementation in these operating systems doesn't share the same code base.

      A lot of words to say, "the native resolvers are ass".

      They want a better thing built in to the platforms we use today, rather than the libraries built to ignore the crap we're handed.

      @shaknais I don't think we're likely to get anything better on these platforms 😓
