    Does anyone ever actually use those prefixes? I’ve personally just couched the difference into bytes vs bits.

      Bytes vs bits is a completely different discrepency that usually comes up with bandwidth measurements.

      So there are: Kilobytes, Kibibytes, Kilobits, and Kibibits

      Pretty much only when talking about the difference like here. 🙃
