Adding IPv6 by default would benefit:

  • the future of the internet, searxng would use IPv6 and thus contributing to the world stats of IPv6 usage
  • allow to easily change IPv6 address for circumventing the blockage of some search engines

Good example of good implementation of ipv6 in a docker-compose file: https://github.com/mailcow/mailcow-dockerized/blob/master/docker-compose.yml#L617

If the host does not have IPv6 then it's ok, with happy eyeballs SearXNG will just use IPv4: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Happy_Eyeballs

To be tested
