I tried that once, basically just Google worked.
It's gotten better but I'm not v6 only, I just don't have v4. I have NAT64 which basically uses your IPv6 as the private address in a traditional NAT setup, allowing you to continue to access the legacy internet without IPv4 inside your network. Catch is you can't connect to IPv4 addresses because it relies on a DNS64 server to generate IPv6 AAAA records from the IPv4 address when a domain only returns IPv4 so only DNS based services work. Basically it lets you have all the befits of a v6 only network with few of the drawbacks.
