Apparently I missed the news, I hadn’t heard about https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/aws/new-ipv6-support-for-ec2-in... yet. But it’s only in one region still.

Full IPv6 support, for everything, in all regions, is the plain minimum.

Sadly, OVH recently removed their IPv6 support, for whatever reason.

Still not IPv6 everywhere.

Its supported in all regions as of January 25: https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/aws/aws-ipv6-update-global-supp...

Yeah, I thought they knew. Here's what I thought might've been on their list

1. You get a single IPv6 per instance (as opposed to a CIDR range).

2. You still have to deal with IPv4 CIDR ranges

3. ...which means you have to deal with all the overlaps still :(

IMO I would love it if my ec2 instances were IPv6 only, and then use public IPv4 addresses or dual stack loadbalancers as necessary for public ingress.
