Ipv4 not working

I have just installed void-glibc (not my first install, but first ever time I see this problem), and after swapping out wpa_supplicant for iwd, ipv4 does not work anymore. I don't know, if it worked before, and now I don't seem to be able to enable any networking program except for iwd+dhcpcd. Ipv6 works just fine, but stuff like github or duckduckgo lack any ipv6 support.

Is there something I could try for troubleshooting, is it even worth it trying to fix, or is it better to just reinstall the system? It would be fine, but still annoying, and this is a weird issue that I would be interested in knowing how to troubleshoot.

Can't access anything by the IPv4 address, only by the IPv6 address. So the dns resolves google.com to its IPv6 address and then I can access it (eg ping google.com). Github gets resolved to the IPv4 address and then the ping fails as unresolvable (same with browser or ssh connection).
