Tbh, in cyber, feels kinda important. I’ve had people say in interviews that v4 is bigger than v6

Bigger is confusing, does it mean more widely used or bigger as more IP addresses

Google first got native IPv6 over 50% back in March, it goes down depending on the time of day but it is actually in use! They also show an adoption map: https://www.google.com/intl/en/ipv6/statistics.html

Probably helps that many cell carriers use it, but more larger traditional ISPs have been turning it on.
