I see that OVH will give you a single IPv6 address. Will they also
give you a /64?

Not AFAIK. They stupidly insist on giving me*ONE* IPv6 address.
That explains a lot.
At https://websavers.ca you have to request IPv6 IPs. Okay.
And I got 5 /112s. It took me a *long* time to figure out what I was
actually assigned.
I thought it was some kind of overlapping subnets like 10.1.1.1/16,
10.1.1.2/16 or something.
So, they actually gave me more than OVH normally assigns (websavers.ca
uses OVH).
Light bulb moment...
Fortunately, a single one suits my needs just fine and a /64 might be
more difficult to manage (maybe, probably not if I knew what I was doing
in the IPv6 world better).
Still, mostly happy with websavers.ca although their DNS management tool
is a bit primitive. It's pushing me to host my own.
