I don’t bother with ULA addresses on my home network and just use the public /56 I have broken into various /64s for each VLAN I have. In a corporate environment, I might use ULA addresses, but since IPv6 is “everything is public by design” and an Enterprise will have a static IPv6 block, if they did it right, it’s not like it’ll change. And for anything that doesn’t need internet, link-local is a thing.
IPv6 isn’t perfect, but I find myself liking it more and more as time goes on. Some of it is habits. Some of it is that I tire of dealing with things like CGNAT and SIP.

Link-local was made for same segment networking made easy
IPv6 link-local: For when you just can’t be bothered to address a damn thing 😂
