Is arbitrary UDP working now?

I don't fault you guys for being a growing startup (we have all been there), but it would be awesome to have a way to flag an issue as "email me when this is fixed so I can come back."

Arbitrary UDP has worked since we launched UDP; it's never had a port filter or anything.

My bad, it was v6 UDP I was thinking of?

I'm a big fan of Fly and have one medium-sized app deployed to it. Just waiting on this specific issue before deploying more: https://community.fly.io/t/allow-non-root-users-to-write-to-...

You're not crazy! We still don't do v6 UDP (there's no good reason for us not to, but it'll be a week of rebuilding a BPF engine while the plane's still in the air, so this task never hits the top of our stack and won't until someone really pressures us on it). Full honesty! That's how we roll on HN. :)

That's such a shame. Would have been a no-brainer for an anycasted authoritative dns setup otherwise.

Hope you get around to it soon!
