You absolutely can. I’m single stacking IPv6 on my fresh hetzner box.

Cloudflare in front of web services and it just works(tm).

For everything else - Argo can do arbitrary TCP (requires cloudflared though) and you can start bugging your ISP about the very real need for IPv6.

Well... yeah? That's adding support for both stacks; just because you farmed it out to a middle-man doesn't mean that it's not there.

Not strictly true. It means that you only have to worry about IPv6 addresses in Layer 7, and you can forget about layers 2 and 3 altogether.

And Layer 7 isn’t a problem for people who should be deploying IPv6 right now because https://ipv6bingo.com/
