We moved our whole headquarter on dual stack a while ago, and periodically I'm turning off IPv4 on my laptop to check what the "user experience" would be with I

  Try with nat64. Not entirely clean experiment, I know (IPv4 upstream of translator). But the result is quite usable. Ping me via mail if I can help with the setup, we did this setup several times with reasonable success.

    Thanks, but that's exactly what I wanted to avoid. With my little unscientific "experiment" I wanted to get a practical taste of how big the IPv6 Internet is right now... "really small" would be the answer :)

      Depends on what you do. YouTube should work fine, netflix does as well. That more than 50% of traffic for some. The long tail is indeed long :-) There with no transition tech you get about 4.8% [1] I think there are two strategies: 1) keep your network as dualstack until the above %% is sufficiently big (how big ?) and then just turn off ipv4 and if something is not available, "too bad". 2) add the band-aid to go ipv6->ipv4 (nat64) and turn ipv4 off in the network as soon as the above %% is sufficiently big (how big?) The additional factors are presence of NAT44, OS mix, network management, etc... Too early for both now, but I am betting (2) will happen earlier. What do you think ?

        Netflix kind of works, but the geolocation is borked, so I had to turn it off (it thought I was in US and then denied access).
