How do you use only ipv6 server?
Recently I bought vps which have only ipv6. It's obviously that I don't have ipv6 home. So, here is question: how do you interact with such servers?
First questio is: can you ask your home internet provider for ipv6?
Otherwise sign up to tailscale and connect your vps server (and your pc/devices) to it.

Should still have old 6to4 protocols, they use ipv4 address tricks to get everything working.

There are tunnel protocols like 6to4, 6RD and so on to allow you to get an IPv6 connection tunneled to you. Various routers do support it.
Another option is to ask your ISP if he will supply a IPv6 subnet to you.

extremely easy to set up, if you are a selfhost purist, there's headscale as a direct alternative.
only really good at doing stuff in a personal workspace, not really made for exposing to the public internet, still very possible tho
