Any hosts I use at this point have native v6. You're gonna need to narrow things down more - in terms of what specs you want, location(s), etc.
BuyVM hands out a /64 with each VPS where you can manually assign individual IPs, as well as an optional routed /48 with rDNS delegation.
Are there really that many hosts now that just support it? Few years ago I guess this thread would've made more sense..
was a lot harder back then
Literally almost any provider does. I can't imagine a reason to NOT include it by default.
Do you guys support it?
Yeah, things have gotten better in the last couple years.
You still need to avoid any hosts that primarily use Colocrossing though (racknerd, etc), since CC v6 is still a meme a decade later.
In Netherlands. I guess I should mention that we don't in Finland, but that's an issue with our upstream and making networking a headache. (Only mentioning that since we did recently reintroduce some Finland stock after having it unavailable for so long).
BuyVM, Nexusbytes, LevelOneServers, Nexril, Vultr, etc are all providers I use for things like DNS, website mirrors, etc. All have it by default.
The best option for you would be BuyVM. They offer a /48 subnet for each VPS by default
If you just want a /64, then there are also tons of choices.
We offer a /64 subnet by default.

I would expect any VPS provider that wants to be taken seriously in 2022 to provide IPv6 by default

Are there any providers right now that offer VPS services with IPv6 only?
I know @servarica_hani has some plans with v6 only.
Both Linode and Vultr provide IPv6 by default.
I'd be curious to know how well they sell.
Justhost.ru does, you can buy VPS with IPv6 only, if you want IPv4 it will cost a bit more
Depends what default means.
For example, every KVM with Prometeus has a /64 allocated but not configured by default, there is a script to find out the settings and you can configure it if needed, there is no need for a ticket. OVZ/Xen has IPv6 already configured but you can also add the /64 if you would like as by default only a few addresses are added in config and NOT from the /64 you can get through the script. For the /64 extra there is no rDNS available in the panel, for that you really need a ticket.
Hey
We provide and configure IPv6 by default when you install a server in our control panel ENIGMA. Your additional /48 is also pre-routed.
First thing I do on every system is disable IPv6. Any reason to keep it on, to be honest?
Doesn't @yoursunny keep a track of this?
I think a lot of providers offer IPv6 enabled by default these days (or at least should be), our VMs, during ordering you just tick the "Enable IPv6" option which will assign it automatically, nothing to action after that
I'm the exact opposite, I disable IP4 on every server since I have no use for it. I have it enabled on a few external services that are facing legacy users that are 20 years behind, but that's it.
One big advantage is that most of the internet noise from all the idiots disappear when you remove IP4 since most of them have not figured out how to use IPv6 yet.
I think most providers have ipv6 enabled these days , only lagging is some residential ISPs
Most provide it in the UK anyway, not sure where you are looking for?
Nearly nobody gets what the OP is asking and it is exactly this distinction -- if you install from a default template, does the booted VM have IPv6 with no further setup? In your case the answer is "no you do not".
And I would disagree that "most" providers would have a "yes" in this question either.
Further somewhat related, one might ask, how many providers set up IPv6 on the LG, and not just have "some IPv6" listed on the LG webpage (and fuck off), but have an actual AAAA record on the hostname that you access the LG with (so that one could simply
mtrorping -6 lg.location.provider.com).Next, craziest things, how about AAAA records on the provider website, billing and control panels? Nope, nobody actually cares, even those who "provide" IPv6 and are "all for it", in words only.
IPv6 available /112 to /64 (without any additional cost)
I can do that just by forcing TLS 1.3 and HTTP/2. As an added bonus I won't lose half of residential users.
HTTP/2 is a game changer in that regard because writing even a simple Python scraper becomes messy and has a learning curve that most people are too dumb for.
Hello there, tinyweasel! The HTTP/2 spec isn't that hard to understand, although I guess your intentions to scrape "various websites" is getting throttled due to the use of bot management products.
But if your concern is only about making some requests on HTTP/2 then my recommendation would be to switch to Node which does have good support for the protocol. Won't solve your bot management problem though.
Why would I ever want to read that?
HTTP is synchronous. HTTP2 is asynchronous. You cannot trivially port existing scraper logic because of that.
IMO main obstacle nowadays is the TLS "fingerprint", meaning the cipher order and extensions. That's what Cloudflare checks when determining if an user is a bot. Cipher order is easy to spoof, but the extensions are pretty much library-specific, and it just happens that none of the major browsers use OpenSSL, which powers most scraping tools and libraries.
Vultr Linode etc.. would have an option for IPv6 when creating the VM
Thanks -- you get what I was asking for perfectly. Was looking for a host that has it setup off the get-go, without any tickets // scripts // configuration.
I decided to go with @MannDude's service in the Netherlands, worked fine and didn't require any setup on my behalf
