I see that lemmy.ml is the only major instance currently reachable over IPv6. When will lemmy.world join the modern internet?

So as an average internet user, can I still access everything if I switch to an ipv6 ISP which doesn't provide ipv4?

I highly doubt you're gonna find a purely IPv6 ISP. You probably wouldn't be able to access everything, but I'd wager most of the big sites would work.

You might be unpleasantly surprised:

Out of the top 1000 Alexa sites, only 490 has IPv6 enabled

That's close to, but not quite, "most".
