Reddit started using CloudFlare late last year, so they should able to
serve content up over v6.


nice!

Sorry to rain on your parade:

dhcp-7f000001:~ jared% host -t aaaa www.reddit.com.
www.reddit.com has no AAAA record

I think will meant that because:
;; QUESTION SECTION:
;www.reddit.com.                        IN      A

;; ANSWER SECTION:
www.reddit.com.         300     IN      A       198.41.208.142
www.reddit.com.         300     IN      A       198.41.208.143
...lots more records...

and:
NetRange:       198.41.128.0 - 198.41.255.255
CIDR:           198.41.128.0/17
NetName:        CLOUDFLARENET

that 'clearly' reddit could have cloudflare serve the endpoint from an
ipv6 address, and thus populate a AAAA in reddit.com's domain.

maybe it's not that simple.
