Hetzner Cloud let’s you deselect the option to get an IPv4 address and they’ll reduce the price.

Thank you so much for this news! I have completely missed it. I've been scaling with terraform for so long, I didn't login to the dashboard to see the news pop-up. This is great, not only can you drop IPv4, you can also drop both IPs and have a private network only VPS. I've got my weekend work cut-out :) In case someone is wondering, the price reduction for dropping IPv4 (no price change in dropping IPv6) is 0.60 EUR (including 19% VAT)
If you're using a dedicated server the IPv6-only option is like 2-5€ depending on server (and auction), so definitely worth in all cases.
Looking at the ASN of this company, it would appear they are reselling Hetzner nodes with IPv4 disabled.
