But there is like gazillion tunneling etc options for people whose isp doesn't provide IPv6; I don't think it's fair to accuse the IPv6 community for ignoring people with ISPs that do not provide IPv6 connectivity when there is so much work put into making viable adaptation paths for them. What more could the community do?

Last I looked, a lot of these either require a public IP address (do not work behind CGNAT), are defunct (not accepting new registrations, or even have a parked domain), or no longer work as well as they used to (both 6to4 and Teredo depend on public anycast relays, and their connectivity seem to have gotten worse; and Teredo also requires that the native IPv6 hosts do not filter ICMPv6 Echo Requests and Echo Replies, which unfortunately are too commonly filtered by overzealous sysadmins).
