@artlog @adingbatponder That makes sense to me and I like the solution. Without local-link you're stuck running something else on top to deal with addresses eg SLAAC for ULAs.
Always stinks when there's just one kinds dump thing standing between a working and nonworking setup. Tho I can understand their reasoning for not supporting it, I agree it's kinds dumb not to.
@adingbatponder @artlog Basically firefox, like most browsers, doesn't support the "odd" IPv6 local-link syntax which requires specifying an interface scope (eg %enp0s25) in the URL thus the browser can't connect. This probably stems from the URL encoding mechanism to handle special characters.
While the browser could technically support it, as curl already does, they've decided not to at this time due to it being a small edge case which would take a lot of work to fix.
@artlog Can you provide any insight into why local-links are being used here?
To me, using ULA would be the better solution.
