Could be intentional: German privacy advocates really like that the limited ipv4 pool forces reusing IPs and prevents accidental imprinting a practically static address on a device.

Can't do IPv6 internally or externally? Internally there should be zero need for ~infinite addresses. Externally though I certainly hope all software is capable of operating via IPv6 at this point because otherwise it will only be increasingly broken.

Makes a lot of sense.

But self-hosting still require at least a public domain name [0], so here goes your privacy right?
