alt Hacker News> It is worth noting that the newest proposed standard for unique identifiers, UUID v7, aims to address the sortability and database performance issues of older UUID versions by adopting a similar time-ordered structure to ULID.
Yeah, I would go with UUID v7 at this point given that it's part of the UUID RFC https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc9562#name-uuid-vers...
Ya, UUID v7 has been standard for a few years now. Perhaps the author is not familiar with the terminology of RFCs and so is misinterpreting the terminology used by IETF: "Request for Comments" and "Proposed Standard" can sound like they're not complete to folks not familiar with the IETF's process. Even then though, I would think they'd notice all the software that has UUID v7 support.
