All major ISPs have had native ipv6 for customers in the US for at least 5 years. Not some funky bastardized implementation but native full ipv6.

Ipv6 is overly complicated and has been riddled with bugs for 30 years now. As long as ipv4 is an option many are going to choose to completely disable it. Some of the security concerns cannot be effectively filtered at all. There are numerous examples of these vulnerabilities from even just the last few years.

It’s hard for teams of engineers to secure properly much less a home user.

I completely disable ipv6 even with a deep understanding of it.

CenturyLink (or Lumen or whatever they want to call themselves today) only has 6rd, at least in my neck of the PNW. And it's best if you don't use it, as their CPE tends to do bad things if you do; my initial CPE would reboot if a fragmented 6rd packet came in over the WAN interface. The current CPE doesn't reboot, but v6 packets sometimes take about 1 second to transit the CPE, so I gave in and run the CPE as a bridge and do PPPoE on my own equipment.

Here in Boise I have two choices for internet, Sparklight or CenturyLink. CenturyLink will only deliver 80Mbps to my house and Sparklight does not support IPv6.
