What's this new trend with connecting to 0.0.0.0...? Since when is 127.0.0.0/8 no longer enough?

Does 0/0 offer to the clients smth 127/8 doesn't?

    The possibility of strangers connecting to your database on public wifi! Absolutely hate that docker on macos is on 0.0.0.0 and can't be changed lol

    @Jifuna bind()'ing != connect()'ing

    i get it why servers bind to 0/0. I don'g get it why clients connect to _world_ when they rly mean _loclhost_. Esp when support for this loopback is inconsistent

    @netikras Ah I haven't seen this yet so I assumed you meant binding, but yeah that sounds weird to me
