IPv6 adoption just shy of 50%; 49.76% on 26th July

My ISP in a small rural town supported IPv6. I have a few personal projects that only have a public v6 address because I don't want to pay AWS for an v4 address.

It worked fine for a year and a half after I moved in, then they did some work and suddenly no IPv6. At least I could enable 6to4 on my router, but that has intermittent issues.

As someone who wishes IPv4 would just die, I wish I had options to push back on such nuisances.

IPv6 adoption visualizations from others:

Reports say IPv6 is gaining market share. But most ISPs are delegating /64 prefix. This is as useless as carrier grade NAT. Atleast with IPv4, I can create NATed subnets for guests, IoT devices etc. That's not possible with IPv6.

Overall it's a negative progress. Worse than IPv4+NAT.

What happens first?
