Comment on first nas network struggle
thelittleblackbird@lemmy.world 2 days agoWell…
Ipv6 is needed for peer to peer networks, easier for vpn and full mndgoru if you want to have a vps…
With it, you can avoid Cgnats and home Nats and usually it is faster and more reliable than ipv4.
So, see it for yourself…

Every time I try to use Ipv6, I run into dozens of weird issues and bugs and my selfhosted stuff becomes unusable/unreliable.
I don’t know where the issue exactly lies in the chain of networking, but it sure is annoying as a mitherfuckef to debug. As far as I can tell none of my stuff is the problem and the issue lies either with my ISP or VPS provider.
For now, I removed the AAAA entries and suddenly everything works without any hiccups. Wake me up when those issues are solved.

Don’t know what to say,
I maintain a double stack since 5 years and apart of some small nuisance I never had a real problem.
Ipv6 has been with us for more than 20 years, and It is true that to have that fine grain control in ipv6 you will need to go to a prosumer devices, but those are not that expensive and if you have a home lab you should check on them anyway…
Things are mature despite your bad experiences

Not as mature as ipv4 apperantly.
ipv6 works fine on my intranet.
If big company A or B can’t get their shit together don’t blame the victim. But if you don’t believe me, I invite you to a debugging session.

I think it varies massively by ISP. my ISP has not implemented IPv6 properly so it causes all sorts of grief for me
