Re: "Gemini capsule over IPv6 only: good idea or not?"
When I setup my gemini capsule, I’d make sure IPv6 is supported, and also DN42 (same idea as yggdrasil, but more focused on the routing part, and not so much on the privacy part).
Some of my services are IPv6-first, this means that there is a direct connection to the host when using IPv6, but that using IPv4 adds a reverse proxy in front, which adds more ping and reduces bandwith. Those used to be IPv6-only, but once I got onto a computer which had no IPv6, I added a reverse proxy.

Gemini capsule over IPv6 only: good idea or not? — I'm hosting a capsule that's available on the same domain name that can resolve both into IPv4 and IPv6 address. Not that I hate IPv4 or anything, but I was thinking: what if it's only available via IPv6? I hear some Gemini clients have issues with IPv6 specifically, but most of the time it's about older versions, and more recent versions seem alright. Has anyone considered and chosen to go or not go with IPv6-only setup? Pros/cons? For context:...
