Re:Enabling IPv6 support for IPv4-only apps on Linux by sgjohnson on Wednesday October 04, 2023 @04:13AM (#37762297)
This is actually a very good workaround/transition mechanism, because it lets you go fully IPv6 native, keeping the translation layer for things that absolutely must use IPv4.

And after transition is done, in theory, all you’d do would be turn off the translation box. In practice you’ll have to keep it up until the end of days, but that’s a separate matter.

Thank you very much for approving my idea!
