This guy knows. CGNAT is incredible sucky and we are definitely out of ipv4. Why not everyone is hopping on IPv6 I don't know. I'm thinking people are afraid of the formatting but that's just dumb.
I’ve tried running my house on ipv6 only before, but you run into A LOT of issues, even with major services. Example: sometimes my devices would fail when trying to connect to Netflix. Netflix.com issues round-robin DNS. One (1) of the possible endpoints turned out to be unreachable from me over IPv6 because of return path MTU shenanigans I had zero control over.
but if we move to ipv6 then my no place like 192.168.1.1 tattoo would lose all meaning! /s
There’s no place like ::1
You could have saved quite a bit of ink with an IPv6 tattoo though.
