[LibreQoS] monitoring twitter rtt looks useful

My specific point from TFA was that they had 100 anycasted IPs all over the
world,

the distance to their dns server shouldn't matter. remarkably *all* of my
tcpdump  traffic for the last 60 seconds was ipv6, the only ipv4s I can see
were 104.244.42.193 104.244.42.2
which are twitters. (really shocking they have no ipv6)

really awful ping times over verizon 5g

root at balthazar:/home/d# ping 104.244.42.2
PING 104.244.42.2 (104.244.42.2) 56(84) bytes of data.
