- ralferoo 7mo agoConversely, I had IPv6 for about 5 years from an ISP and when I switched providers, the new ISP was IPv4 only. A few years later and they now support IPv6, but my firewall setup is now IPv4 only, so I've not bothered to update it.
- mrjay42 7mo agoWell, you're very lucky (genuinely). In 2025, I tried to access my services using IPv6 with 4G phones and different subscriptions (different ISPs), fact is, many (most?) of them did not support IPv6 at all :( I had to revert to IPv4. And really I have nothing against IPv6, but yeah, as a simple user, self hosting a bunch of services for friends and family: it was simply just not possible to use only IPv6 :( (for context, the 4G providers are French, in metropolitan France)
- rjsw 7mo agoMy phone contract that does offer IPv6 is with Free, I could not work out whether it would disable IPv4 if I enabled IPv6 so have not tried changing it.

- ranger_danger 7mo agoThere is not a single ISP in my area that provides any IPv6 support whatsoever. This is also the case for many, many millions of others around the world.
