My ISP is still incapable of resolving IPv6 addresses at all. Same goes for several other ISPs in my country that I have tried before that. As of now I need to rent a separate VPS just to have my home server be visible online on a public IPv4 address, and that is with a heavy bandwidth penalization. Can't wait for IPv6 to be generally available in my country at least!
Well, that's where my scenario dies - I'm behind CGNAT (not even a dynamic IP with direct access to the Internet), and the only providers that do have a fixed IP available only provide the service to commercial clients - which is to say, I'm expected to pay hundreds of dollars a month for the privilege. Guess I'll keep needing a VPS for the time being!
