Overview of VPN providers that support IPv6
Finding commercial VPN providers that provide real IPv6 support
(as opposed to just blackholing traffic) is pretty hard so I decided to
write down the ones I know about.
The amount of information present depends on the provider's documentation and whether I have tested them myself.

1: This is mainly important for address selection according to
RFC3484.
If this column says "Private" your OS will prefer IPv4 when connected to the VPN despite presence of an IPv6 address.
2: Specificially, whether IPv6 port forwarding works.
3: Use hostname {location}.ipv6.azirevpn.net.
4: Claims to have IPv6 support. Did not have working OVPN config files, not usable at all.
