Like what though?
The last thing I have that doesn’t support ipv4 from the hardware level is my Nintendo DS.
Everything else has the hardware capability, it’s just never used or enabled in the software by default.
…and most people who own those devices have never heard of IPv6 and don’t know how to enable it. They just won’t be able to access your website. If Amazon dropped support for IPv4, there wouldn’t be anything i’d be able to do to deal with the fall out. I’m not going to send a technician to every single home of every customer I have. What I could (and would) do is move all my stuff off Amazon.
this shouldnt be a.burden for users.
you can simply update a device to support it by default.
My smart TV from two years ago does not support ipv6, and it was fairly high end.
I was really trying about 5 years ago but there were just so many devices that don’t. My ISP still doesn’t
What manufacturer/operating system?
Vizio 65” OLED. Technically I don’t see anything saying yes or no on IPv6 but I didn’t find any relevant settings on the TV network config, nor do I see any IPv6 address on my router.
I did see an online post of someone saying similar, except the Chromecast functionality used IPv6
