isnt reddit pretty heavily invested in aws? aws doesn't support ipv6. nor does google compute.

ELBs are dual-stack v4/v6 by default.

That's about it though for IPv6 support on AWS. Annoyingly, Route53 supports AAAA records but their nameservers are only reachable via IPv4.

Unfortunately, only ELBs in EC2 Classic support IPv6: "Load balancers in a VPC support IPv4 addresses only."

Oh so AWS's only bit of ipv6 support has regressed. Sigh.

reddit uses Cloudflare now, so this isn't as big of an issue as it used to be. Some relevant links:
