Ah, the utopian dream of an IPv6-only household 🌐, where unicorns roam free and every device magically supports the latest protocol. But alas, reality crashes the party 🎉, with antiquated #IPv4 clinging on harder than Windows XP in a corporate office. Remember, if it doesn’t work, just throw more tech acronyms at it! 🙄

Building a Mostly IPv6 Only Home Network – Varun Sinai Priolkar

Free Software Foundation's AS22898 was registered in 1997. Curious, why it only has 1 IPv4 block 209.51.188.0/24 announced owned by Hurricane Electric. IPv6 space 2001:470:142::/48 is also owned by Hurriance.

Sale of 43.0.0.0/8 IPv4 space (to the highest bidders) would always fascinate and sadden me https://bgp.tools/transfer-history/?org=APIDTT%20PTY%20LTD

Details at https://blog.apnic.net/2020/03/25/announcement-regarding-ipv4-address-block-43-8/ and https://www.theregister.com/2020/03/26/apnic_jun_murai_ipv4_auction/

Oh, great. #YouTube thinks some large chunks of our #IPv6 ranges are creating unusual traffic.

The odd thing is that we have 2 large ipv6 ranges and at least two /64's ( one from each ) are blocked where other /64's are not.

And #ipv4 seems to be unaffected.

Looks like others are complaining about something similar at downdetector.com as well.

i am having the wildest time. #IPv4 sort of works but bot quite. #IPv6 is definitely borked. and they dont 't seem to know what is up

@hallunke23 Btw, there are already plenty of #IPv6only websites (see https://www.vypiname.cz/en/ for a list of those I’m aware of). And Czech Republic has a policy in place that demands the state to work on fully deploying #IPv6 (this is centrally coordinated and monitored, annual reports are available to the public) and to *shut down* #IPv4 on 2032-06-06 (this concerns all state services).

@generalx I use bunny so people that are stuck on #IPv4 can access my #IPv6only only content. I’ve moved on having to support legacy protocols and port redirection cludge. #IPv6

OH: Issue ist, dass die xzy-API auf der IPv4 nicht hoch kommt. Auf IPv6 ist sie da, aber es gibt keine IPV6 Adressen auf dem Host.

Mal was neues.

Yess!! Success!

I finally have public IPv4 working on my internet router infrastructure 🎉

~ ❯ ping -c 3 194.28.98.217
PING 194.28.98.217 (194.28.98.217) 56(84) Bytes an Daten.

Now my "hobby ISP" is dual-stack and I have working connectivity in both worlds ..

IPv6: 2a06:9801:1c::/48 -- via BGP (AS201379)

IPv4: 194.28.98.216/29 -- routed to me via Transit-Provider
