People have been asking for IPv6 Support on GitHub since years (probably a decade by now)

Meanwhile, in the US, the government paid ISPs for fiber to be ran and they just pocketed it instead.

Now we've got smaller companies running fiber and charging less for synchronous gigabit than you'd pay for copper 500mb down 5mb up, and ISPs are panicking a bit.

All the fiber maps have big empty zones where apartment complexes are, sadly.
