ts was just as good. Maybe once I hit something that caused a performance problem , but an email to that AS was all it took to fix ; they didn't realize they were prepending that much and corrected it. I have firsthand knowledge of some other networks that do similar things. On Thu, Oct 20, 2022

Often lost in the 'debate' about V6 adoption is that for a 100% native IPv6 experience to work, there are multiple other components that have nothing to do with the network that ALSO have to work correctly. Any issues with these are likely going to cause fallback to v4. It's very difficult to know
