SRS is the only correct path. Anything else fails alignment. Locked threads on this before. Take provider-specific complaints to DMs.

Linux43 here, long time lurker. Sam, run your own EPP check if you have a registrar accreditation, otherwise use whois directly. Hetzner's layer adds failure modes.

I wrote a small script using Net::EPP for my own monitoring. Not for registration, just for accurate status. Can share if useful.

Same here on the CloudFlare free tier. I have been running dual-stack on Contabo Nuremberg and Contabo Seattle for three years, DNS on CloudFlare, no issues. The v6 connectivity from Germany to the US is actually more reliable than v4 some days. Less congestion, fewer middleboxes.
