They were a bit too public with “Dual_EC_DRBG”, to the point where everybody just assumed it had a backdoor and avoided it, the NSA ended up having to pay people to use it.

5·5 months ago- If your ISP doesn’t do IPv6, then you’re fine (But should look for a better ISP)
- If your ISP does do IPv6, then you should install the patch now (Unless you’re not using IPv6 on the LAN, in which case you’re fine but get a better router/sysadmin)
- If your ISP does do IPv6, but you can’t install the patch for whatever reason, only then should you disable IPv6
The problem is people recommend disabling IPv6 for random unrelated reasons (Like gamers claiming it decreases your IPv4 latency), so yeah MS is going to be insistent that users not fiddle with things they don’t understand because it’s really unlikely they’ll go back and restore that config when it doesn’t actually help.
Qt is overkill if all you’re using it for is to create a window you render into, something like SDL would be better.
