I am a bit split this topic. There is some privacy concerns with using ipv6. https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc7721.html#page-6

Some time ago I decided for our site to not roll out ipv6 due to these concerns. (a couple of million visitors per month) We have meta ads reps constantly encourage us to enable it which also do not sit right with me.

Although I belive fingerprinting is sofisticated enough to work without using ip's so the impact of using ipv6 might not be a meaningful difference.
