- jeroenhd 3y agoI don't see a lot of devices that don't support IPv6 these days. Linux supports it, so most terrible IoT crapware works perfectly fine, and esp-idf enables it by default (solving the problem for a ton of cheap smart home crap). There are still devices that don't support hardware IPv6 acceleration but at this point even those are becoming rare.
- ajsnigrutin 3y agoA bunch of devices don't... IoT devices based on esp8266 or esp32 don't (from washing machines to sous vide cookers), many ip cameras, sensors, smart locks etc., don't. Yeah, linux itself might support it, but when compiling the image for those few megs of flash, developers just disable it, because well.. everyone still has ipv4 available.
