@sagher, this is a good topic, but please create own topic instead of using someone else's topic to ask a question that is on a different topic.

ipv6 is a newer version of ip address . it uses 64 or 128 bit i forget but it is much more than 32 bit ipv4 . it introduced back in 1999 if im not wrong but it is still rarely used today mostly because ipv4 still widely used . both of them isnt compatible from each other . ipv4 address is now depleting because there are a lot of isp and because it isnt compatible with ipv4 the migration is kinda hard . but lucklily because it is introduced in 1999 most operating system already support ipv6 and some router too but most isp espescially the lower end one still stuck with ipv4 and provide no ipv6 support . the main advantage of ipv6 is much more ip so there is probably no ip shortage for long time with ipv6 . and to proof just how much ipv6 is . vps 10 give you 65k of them

That is easy !
Go to APN settings
Profile that you use
Then Edit
Select IP configuration
Lallu choose IP Version
And choose IPv6
And the terms of the router and your ISP must support IPv6!
I use this method because in the area I live in It already supports IPv6 but only a few websites support the IPv6

the operating system is very likely support ipv6 but most provider espescially in indonesia are still holding tight ipv4 and some isp do ipv6 with teredo tunneling like that . To make the website support ipv6 you need to change lot of settting on the domain end like adding aaaa record and on apache/nginx to listen on ipv6
like i said before the biggest problem of switching to ipv6 is incompatibility with each other

FYI: IPv6 is backwards compatible to IPv4 although not at the very best level in terms of network performance and setup, but it is compatible. It's called IPv4-in-IPv6. IPv4 addresses can be carried within a IPv6 address like 0:0:0:0:0:ffff:808:808 (example from https://www.ultratools.com/tools/ipv4toipv6). And it is done in real world use cases (of course with other prefixes than in the example). What is a real use case? DNS64 and NAT64 for example. This allows a IPv6 only machine to access IPv4 content easily by simply using DNS servers that are setup with DNS64 and NAT64.

I used to do this with a lot of these IPv6 only free VPSs.
