Since I moved my server to ipv6 only federation broke. I’m guessing this server is acessible trough the cloudflare proxy, but the underlying server is unable to connect to mine

    That is very possible. IPv6 only is still problematic. There are still loads of servers without or with broken IPv6 connectivity. You could put cloudflare on front of your server and get an IPv4 address that way.

      Cloudflare is a few clicks away, but I don’t wanna use IPV4, I want the world to move forward

        Disabling IPv4 isn’t going to do anything to move IPv6 forward. You’re just shutting those who remain limited to IPv4 through no fault of their own.

          After some sleep, I have to concede you this point, I enabled Cloudflare no my side. I’ve read a lot of criticism of Cloudflare here on Lemmy itself, but it seems to be the lesser evil.

      Well, you see, it’s only been around 20 years or so. We need another 20-40 years of “IPv6 is coming” reminders before people really take a look at it.

        I don’t like it either but the facts are the facts. Transitioning between technologies is always hard, especially if it isn’t necessary. Nat works too well.
