this is for all the gooners of lemmy

There is also ifconfig.me which works amazingly on the command like with curl ifconfig.me

icanhazip.com

Crymyip.com

Is it malicious code hosted on the website? Or are they saying that visiting that site is an indicator of compromise because they've malware commonly visiting that site?

I have DuckDuckGo set as my default search engine, so I just search for "ip" and Bob's your uncle

https://www.ipchicken.com/

There's also https://ip4.me/, nice and simple ipv4 test.

(it also does other IP lookups via https://ip6.me/, https://ip6only.me/, https://whatismyv6.com/)

I always use check.torproject.org. If I'm not on Tor, it gives me my IP, if I am on Tor it verifies that. Good for both.

icanhaz tools:

• https://canhazip.com/

• https://browserleaks.com/ip

https://icanhazip.com/

My goto has always been https://www.whatismyip.com/, or https://www.wimi.com/ for short.

#!/usr/bin/sh  
dig -4 +short @resolver2.opendns.com myip.opendns.com  

#!/usr/bin/pwsh  
Resolve-DnsName -Server resolver2.opendns.com -Name myip.opendns.com -Type A | % { echo $_.IPAddress }  

There should be an IPv6 resolver, but I don't remember and am currently unable to test. My PowerShell skills are also effectively non-existent.

For us Linux users (BTW), this wtfismyip script just dumps a text string. Just save it to /usr/local/bin or some other location in your path and make it executable, and install the lynx text www browser if you don't have it installed already.

There are a lot of ways to do this, but this works and I'm lazy...

root@tux:~# cat $(which wtfismyip)
#!/bin/bash

printf "%s\n" "Your fucking IP address is $(lynx -dump -nolist http://wtfismyip.com/text)."

root@tux:~# wtfismyip
Your fucking IP address is 13.107.226.41.

I wrote my own. It's one of the easiest possible services to write.

ip.me also works well in the terminal with curl. The default response is plaintext

also ip.wtf

I use thiscomputer.info

It's just text. It shows a bit more than just your IP. And it's easy to remember.

I’ve been using ifconfig.me for a while, you can curl it on the command line

I've been using wgetip.com for over a decade now

curl ifconfig.me

Not sure about Linux, but on a Mac you can put it on your clipboard with

curl ifconfig.me | pbcopy

dnsleaktest.com

ipleak.net

Check your IP and your DNS, all in one.

You can just search ip on ddg and it'll show you

IP chicken is another option

We have a little one, in case it's useful. https://ip.brightfur.net/ Super simple. Works with curl too (autodetects whether to give you plain text or an HTML webpage).

It's like 20 lines of PHP and most of that's HTML.

i usually use icanhazip.com, seems to work well enough
