@abloo Alot of them will give you an ipv6 address if you request it. They dont by default cause most people dont know how to use one

@freemo I'm talking about just being able to connect to one from your home

@abloo without a ipv6 address, or atleast a tunnel into it that would give you one, you cant really connect to ipv6. So its kinda the same thing, they would have to give you a ipv6 address for that and then no one except for experts would know how to use it.

@freemo @abloo ? No one except for experts knows how to use IPv4 either, but fortunately it's automatically configured (DHCP), and so is IPv6 (RA) by all competent ISPs. You'd have to go to some effort to disable it. It just works.
