TIL: just how few servers use . Mine was set up wrong, and almost everything worked fine.

@fastfinge I'm surprised at how many instances don't actually use IPV6 considering the software itself is pretty stack independent. I didn't have to do anything special when setting this thing up and it runs just fine over IPV6.

@quanin I think it’s because docker has IPv6 off by default, and you have to do special things to get it working.

@fastfinge @quanin I did not know that about Docker. Surprises me a little bit because I would have thought there would be ways to use the large IPv6 address space to make it easier to make network connections in and out of containers, but that's just an offhand thought, not an especially deep dive into containers.

@soaproot @quanin I wonder if that’s the reason it’s off? To run my fedi server, I have a container for the backend, one for the front end, one for email, one for backups, and one for the reverse proxy. The only one I want to have a public IP is the reverse proxy.
