I was setting up iptables like I have done a billion times before, but when trying to /etc/init.d/iptables save, it said that the kernel doesn’t have support for it. Wut? So I load ip_tables with modprobe, only to lose it after a reboot, so I shoved it into modules in mkinitcpio.conf, which seems to have helped.

What’s going on? Are we forcibly moving on to nftables?
