As someone who transitioned officially to native dual stack IPv4/IPv6, I will attest to the fact that I could not tell the difference, unless something was borked on the other end, such as the time last year when I needed to access a government website and couldn't, until I disabled IPv6 in my browser. I did send them feedback and the problem was quickly fixed. There was also the time that members of an international ham radio club complained that their website was down, but I couldn't reproduce the problem. Turns out that something broke on IPv4 at the hosting provider, but I was accessing the site fine via IPv6.
I'm particular how I setup any hosting I have, to avoid issues with either protocol. This is the reason I have two hostnames for this BBS - one is IPv4 only for user/QWK access, as the BBS side is IPv4 only, the other hostname is in the various nodelists I'm in, because my mailer is fully IPv6 capable (binkd), and I want to encourage IPv6 adoption on Fidonet and the othernets I'm on.
MvV> True. My syster lives in a home for the elderlt people. She has a MvV> laptop, but no internet connection of her own. She uses the WiFi MvV> network of the home. So she is behind a NAT. No IPv6 and so she only MvV> has an IPv4 address in the private range. She does not know that. She MvV> does not know what a NAT is, she does not know what a public IPv4 MvV> address is. People like her do not have to know.
My partner also doesn't notice that we have IPv6 capabilities, neither does the occasional visitor who uses our wifi. Everything "just works". :)
In some ways, IPv6 may be a victim of its own effective transition mechanisms.
I _do_ notice the difference, but that's because (1) I look, I have extensions in my browser to report what IP version is being used, and (2) I like to host servers. I have 3 IPv4 and one IPv6 networks overlaid on the same wire here:
IPv4 LAN (RFC1918 addresses - default DHCP) IPv4 public - a /29 for hosting servers, including the 2 BBSs. Provided by a VPN. IPv4 AMPRnet/HAMnet - I have a /24 allocation in 44.x, I use a /29 for the LAN and the rest is for RF and other networks. I'm using IP in IP tunneling. IPv6 global - I have a /56 IPv6 allocation, which I'm currently using a /64 of for my LAN, and am considering experimenting with another /64 for ham radio.
