Forum not accessible via IPv6

I can’t access this forum in my desktop with dual stack. There are AAAA DNS entries, but those timeout while trying to do the TLS handshake.

Works fine if I go via IPv4.

Please, file an issue on the Infrastructure project.

I would love to, but looks like it’s hosted on the same infrastructure and also broken over IPv6 =/

Examples:

IPv6

➜ ~ curl [https://discourse.gnome.org/](https://discourse.gnome.org/) -vI -6
* Trying 2620:52:3:1:5054:ff:fede:8714:443...

Then how did you open this topic and reply? :wink:

I’ve opened an issue for you.

Topic was opened over my phone mobile connection, and the reply was posted via email, as the little icon next to the timestamp of that post shows. But it’s harder to paste the output of curl in my phone.

This seems to be a problem on your end, tested from multiple external sites and the connection works fine. Please see the following test as well.

Thanks!
