    Seriously? How can any device call themselves current gen and not support something as basic as this? That’s just embarrassing.

          Probably via SLAAC. Android doesn’t follow the specifications for getting an individual DHCPv6 address

        Ugh… still? I knew the mail app had shitty support for it and had to create an IPv4-only dns entry for my mail server, I didn’t realize the whole system was broken. Ah well, despite being an android user myself I would still place it in the bucket of “not modern” because there’s really no excuse for something like this.
