" so many Fiber providers are IPv6 reluctant." This depends on the country. Usually "late internet countries" have more open to turn into IPv6. One German university has more IPv4 addresses than whole China.

Which country are you from?

USA.

The fiber provider I was assigned to by default put me behind CGNAT. To me, this hints to me that they don't have as many IPv4 as they need. I politely requested that they unNAT me and they eventually did.

notable: Their default DNS server can't resolve over half the common domains I tried, inc the one for their their own site. It returns an empty response.

Otherwise their service seems okay. I'm still switching to another provider - one that seems more grown up and sells 2.5Gb for $80/mo.
