I am loving Netlify!

However:

> The site will have free TLS and IPv6

Unfortunately, the DNS provider (dns1) does not expose DNS over IPv6. Therefore your site is exposed over IPv6 by Netlify, but it will not be reachable by a (probably non-existant) IPv6-only client.

Try:

dig AAAA dns1.p04.nsone.net

View on HN

This not correct. The auth DNS resolves ipv6 records for that domain:

bash-4.4$ dig @dns1.p04.nsone.net AAAA brainfood.xyz +short 2604:a880:400:d1::8b0:4001

The thing is that `dig AAAA dns1.p04.nsone.net` does not resolve anything. A pure-ipv6 network would not be able to resolve my domain, as there is no way to contact dns1.p04.nsone.net via IPv6.

Ah, ok I get now.

Yes. And no. It depends on the resolver. If the resolver is IPv6-only as well, then yes.

But thanks for pointing this out!
