My wired carrier only gives me a /60 for ipv6 and they can't do reverse DNS entries for ipv6. :(

At least I get an ipv6.

You mean /64? /60 allows some subnetting

Exactly some. We are so tight on ipv6 adresses a /48 would be ludicrous. Imagine me wanting some local networks.

This is something where ipv4 is actually better for my use. Also I have to hardcode the ipv6 prefix in so many applications and services - I dread ever getting a different prefix.
