nftables is now almost 10 years old! It's time to forget the bad experiences with iptables.
I have -- I let the OpenBSD firewalls take care of it :P

Seriously though it's something I need to get familiar with, I do still have plenty of Linux boxes that face the public Internet and are currently dependent on iptables/ip6tables rulesets. The problem is I'm currently masking that pain with Ansible.
