It does not work like that, what you get is big deployments using ipv6 and some strange ipv4 setup so there are more and more clients using ipv6. On the server side you will start to see more and more clients using ipv6. About 40% of our customers use ipv6. They can still access ipv4 though it is just that their network provider prefers having them on ipv6.
Ip version is not a selling point, unless you are on the server.
- WorldMaker 1y agoNot just a network provider preference. It is an OS-level preference in most consumer hardware today. (The "Happy Eyeballs" protocol, among other things. OSes will send IPv6 first, then after a delay send IPv4 and after that favor whichever one is "quickest"/"healthiest".) It's also a natural preference over things like STUN/"UPnP" to avoid NATs, especially CGNATs.
