Is it worth setting up IPv6 for Mastodon? My new VM has a v6 address and I kinda feel bad for not using it

@noiob I have ipv6 up on my server just because I think it’s cool

@noiob (but also I activated it from the get go)

@Siph do I have to configure stuff or do I just point DNS at v6 too?

@noiob I don’t think there is anything more specific to do than enable IPv6 in your server if it’s not up, enable it in your nginx conf if it’s not set to listening in ipv6 (if you used default mastodon confs it should) and make your AAAA records it should be fine
