I just need a technique for remembering ipv6 addresses, they're great but I miss being able to easily memorise ipv4 D:
I miss that too, but sadly there is no easy equivalent. You just have to make local DNS your friend. Iโm in the process of going ipv6-only on my home LAN (because Iโm a tech nerd). I enable avahi/bonjour on everything that supports it, then I simply connect to <hostname>.local.
Any servers that require a static v6 IP address get something like <prefix>::BABE:CAFE:1 mostly just as a way to remind myself that the address is static and not allocated by SLAAC.
