People have been asking for IPv6 Support on GitHub since years (probably a decade by now)

It's becoming more and more of a problem I'd think. Blocklists just become longer, so the more an IP is used by random people the less useful it becomes.

I might be completely wrong about this though.

Well, kinda-sorta. I've yet to hit ip block when browsing without a VPN, but VPNs and proxies definitely are getting blocked pretty consistently.

And seeing how wonderful the situation here is right now, I'm pretty familiar with VPNs at this point.
