Ask HN: What am I missing by not enabling IPv6 in 2022?

1 pointsby getflookupalmost 3 years ago
A couple of things to note:<p>+ I use a laptop for work, some video streaming and very light online gaming.<p>+ My ISP might or might not support IPv6, but let&#x27;s assume it does.

Absolutely nothing.<p>+ You&#x27;re in the majority. For example, only ~40% of the global traffic Google receives is over IPv6.<p>+ There aren&#x27;t any generally availably internet services.<p>If you ever find yourself worrying about NATs, reverse NATs, or, generally, exposing things running with a non-internet facing IP addresses to the Internet, it may be time to learn more about IPv6.<p>Until then, for the use-case you&#x27;ve described, you&#x27;re good.

For your home there&#x27;s nothing to lose. IPv4 is just fine.<p>I&#x27;d go even further as to apply this to most small and mid-size businesses.
