I used vpn gate and it working pretty good. Sites are unblocked and good speed. But my ipv6 and location is same and only ipv4 is different.
I’m new to these stuffs so is it safe?

If you’re only trying unblock stuff then you’re ‘safe’. However if you’re trying to hide your location or which sites you are accessing then it is not ‘safe’. You’re leaking info.
So, in your post mention that sites are unblocked. If this is all you care about then you don’t need to do anything.
But since your ipv6 address and location are not changed this means your are “leaking” data. As in some data is not going through the VPN, instead its going out plaintext which is “unsafe” because its not encrypted.
If you want to fix the leak, then disable IPv6 (ipv4 has better support as far as VPNs go), to do this just lookup something like “disable ipv6 ” (eg disable ipv6 windows). Or alternatively find a VPN that supports IPv6 or maybe yours does already but its not configured correctly.
I turned it off on my adapter and its working ,but still there is dns leak when I check IPleak.net, some shows of my home and USA and Australia instead of Japan.
Try changing your dns servers, make sure you’re not using your ISPs dns server.
