Do YOU setup ipv6 on your websites?
I personally dont bother, but maybe I should? Good poll topic.
"Yes and I dont know if it increases traffic" === "Yes and it doesn't increase traffic" (cant edit poll)

You should add more content in your thread rather than simply adding a poll with two sentences.
I'm practicing KISS today....
How about a "Yes and it doesn't increase traffic"
I run IPv6 when available mostly just to make sure that it works, not that it increases web traffic.
I have also run into issues when running IPv6, particularly with email. On my mail server I disable IPv6.
Yes and I dont know if it increases traffic === Yes and it doesn't increase traffic lets say since I dont ?think? I can edit the poll.
I don't, and probably wont until my ISP rolls it out.
Well, there's a difference between not knowing if it increases traffic (because you never took attention to it) and knowing it doesn't increase traffic (because you took attention to it) :P
I do, because there are many cable providers in my target country, that provide their clients IPv6 only internet connections (IPv4 only through congested carrier NATs).
And I do video streaming...
Almost everything over here is IPv6 ready. But I can really say that it has increased traffic.
What I see is less IPv4 traffic, while IPv6 is slightly increasing every month.
I think we can say that the "implement" side has it and its a watch and see about the traffic.
I setup IPv6 on all of my websites. Last time I had one of my servers nullrouted there were still plenty of IPv6 visitors showing up to browse my websites.
It is always a good idea to ensure IPv6 compatibility from the get-go. While it may not be too popular with ISP's at the moment, it is surely going to be the default in the future.
Removed it since my online.net ipv6 started to randomly die when using lots addresses.
Most routers have problems holding the ndp table when using a large amout of ipv6 addresses. This is related due to their CAM Space. Maybe Online.net has rate limited your "usage" to avoid cam shortage. How much IP's did you use? :-D
On online.net,
I assign a /56 to my dedicated machines. Pfsense takes it and distributes smaller subnets to VMs, VPN etc. But from time to time I do have connectivity problems as well. It's not rock solid.
Yes, both personally and for HEXODO. I have no idea if it increases traffic, but it's not my intention.
Only thing I'm waiting for is more home internet providers to provide IPv6 as well.
All signs point to mobile users being the first big wave of IPv6 consumers:
