IPv6 is now twice as old as IPv4 was when IPv6 was introduced. 20 years ago I worried about needing to support it. Now I don't even think about it at all.
If you've never thought about it, there's a good chance your actually using it. ISPs around the world have been turning on IPv6 for their customers. About half the internet is using IPv6 these days, so there's a 50/50 chance you're part of that.
I suspect my cellphone does, but not my work or home internet.
