Context:
People have been asking for IPv6 Support on GitHub since years (probably a decade by now)
… and someone even got so annoyed that they decided to setup a dedicated website for checking this: https://isgithubipv6.live/
Why should we care? So address space may run out eventually - that’s our ISPs’ problem.
Other than that I actually don’t like every device to have a globally unique address - makes tracking even easier than fingerprinting.
That’s also why my VPN provider recommends to disable IPv6 since they don’t support it.
Because people in countries with ISPs that are unable to provide IPv4 (e.g. too expensive) can’t access GitHub easily.
I’m actually bit sad that I had to move onto a ISP which has zero IPv6 support, as I previously did have IPv6. The last thing I did on that connection was to debug the hell out of my IPv6 code I had developed.
I feel you, moved ISP maybe 3 months ago, only to find out I’m behind CGNAT and no IPv6…
That should simply not be allowed. Cgnat for ipv4 is fine if they also provide proper ipv6
I’m not. I disable it on all Linux machines I manage. And we do not use it at work either.
