So you gotta log into your registrar and copy paste your IPv6 address and wait god knows how long for it to propagate...

DNS doesn't actually "propagate", all you're waiting for is the caches to expire, and you can control that by keeping a low TTL on the record.

Or you can host your own dns. Or you can get a decent dns host. It doesn’t need to be your domain registrar, much like you don’t need your website or email hosted with your domain registrar.
