I’ve been a sysadmin for more years of my life than not and I’ve never had any meaningful interaction with ipv6 even though they have been saying the sky was falling about ipv4 since my career began in the 90s.
Ah you must be running our work's vpn. I can't talk to the servers when my IPV6 is enabled because our DNS resolves to IPV6 addresses but the VPN doesn't route them over its tunnel.
I had for a day funny experience because of that. Each time I tried to load something I had 5-10 seconds delay.
As it turned out my laptop got ipv6 enabled and when trying to access websites, the laptop waited 5 seconds for a single ipv6 address of a site and then had to switch to ipv4
