Re: Arch Linux stuck on legacy iptables by default

nftables is able to respond to iptables commands through the compatibility layer.

iptables-nft is the packet for you.

I always thought the iptables default was the result if Arch's KISS philosophy
and I really appreciate it. I use iptables, ipset and fail2ban and like being
able to put those base pieces together and tailor them for my server use
without bringing in the whole nftables pre-defined sets.

I appreciate Arch providing the basic tools by default, while also making
nftables available if you want to go that route. I wouldn't change the default.
