I've been running Fedora on dual stack v4/v6 for well over a decade
without issues as my ISP has long supported it.

There was a UK IPv6 Council meeting recently [1] that I was hoping to
attend but had conflicts, thankfully they've also published most of
the slides/videos which are useful and interesting.

Overall I have a bunch of thoughts as IPv6 is of large interest to
IoT/Edge so I have been following it somewhat. Reviewing a bunch of
the slides from that event, some referenced RIPE meetings, it lead me
to file a NetworkManager RFE [2] for RFC-8925 support. I also intend
to investigate setting up a IPv6 only VLAN but a quick look at my
Unifi GW UX didn't make it easy and I'm yet to dig into what's needed
from a cli PoV there :)

Overall I suspect there's some work directly in Fedora around defaults
but quite a bit may well be in upstream projects like NM. Happy to
help where I can.
