Dont think we need to make that distinction here. :) correct of course but ip vs i2p, tcp vs udp vs utp, etc are all different layers of the same domain.
Ah, I shouldve been more clear. I didnt just mean tcp specifically, I meant IP as a whole, for an example of a competing standard see x.25.
Funny enough, that wikipedia article mentions that x.25 is still in use by the aviation industry, and after a quick search it seems it is!
So I guess Im still wrong lol.
TCP/IP isnt the only standard in use even today. UDP/IP is the other big one and there’s a few smaller protocols hanging around like utp.
We also have I2P now.
that’s a different layer, it’s not transport but a network protocol. it “competes” with IP

You can probably throw Ethernet in there as well then, unless there’s anyone out there rocking a Lemmy instance on token ring…
