All global IPv6 addresses start with 2. This is by design. Pedantically, 3 is also reserved for global. Some other prefixes are also reserved, like fd for the ULA (local) range.

The point of IPv6 was to make the addresses so long they are easy to manage.

The point of IPv6 was to make the addresses so long that we don't run out of them in 20 years or so.

There fixed that for you.

lol, there is no doubt that had a massive opposite effect. To the point of nearly killing it in terms of willingness to adopt.

		I know that on my hosted server, I never bothered to set it up, because I didn't know how to properly configure or sub-net it. I know it's skill issue, but really feels significantly more complicated and even harder to understand than NAT even. Not to mention, at home, most of the ads I do see (PiHole) are IPv6 addresses.
