I’ve been using smartproxy ipv6 for a while, and it’s been working well for me.
IPv6 does seem to bypass some blocks better, but it’s not a magic bullet.
Speed is comparable to IPv4, maybe a tad faster in some cases.
Setup was straightforward, but I did have to update my scraping tool to fully support IPv6.
If you’re curious, I’d say go for it—it’s worth testing out.
