   IPv6 means I can use Let's Encrypt certs in my home LAN with their standard validation method without resorting to port forwarding bullshit.

   End-to-end connectivity is so nice. It is how the internet was meant to be before our collective lack of foresight gave us NAT.

     @staticsafe Do you have native v6, or are you using some transition mechanism?

     @staticsafe TBH, I feel like the lack of IPv6 rollout support is, like, 85% about making it harder for people to self host stuff.

     @staticsafe My ISP does support v6 (https://aa.net.uk/) but the ADSL modem/router they sold me for it is a puzzle to configure (ZyXEL) and didn't work with my Ubuntu or Raspian systems (they don't get routeable addresses). I realise you don't need one yourself but do you happen to know of any decent consumer ADSL/VDSL modems/routers for v6?
