I use those that have IP geolocation or ISP info to confirm that my VPN or proxy works.

Otherwise I'm happy that you've made this. The world has fewer and fewer tools that do one thing well without asking anything of you.

I got tired of sending people to ad laden websites, some of them quite obnoxious, just for an IP. So I made this. No ads, no affiliation with anybody but the guy who made it, just a place to get Just Your IP.

Gosh, and here I feel like an Old for remembering the big list:

* http://checkip.dyndns.com/

* http://ip1.dynupdate.no-ip.com/

* https://ipchicken.com/

* https://ifconfig.me

or, the classic "let TTL do the work": ping -i 2 example.org (assuming you're one hop from your egress)

Earlier quoted context omitted.

There's also icanhazip.com and /cdn-cgi/trace on any Cloudflare-proxied site.

I didn't know about the /cdn-cgi/trace Cloudflare trick. Here's a one-liner to print just the ip via curl: curl -s cloudflare.com/cdn-cgi/trace | grep ip | cut -d "=" -f 2 --

You could use awk instead of grep & cut:

      curl -s cloudflare.com/cdn-cgi/trace | awk '{FS="="} /ip/ {print $2}'

And sed:

    curl -s cloudflare.com/cdn-cgi/trace | sed -nr "s/^ip\=(.+)$/\1/p"

Doesn’t seem to work for me on Safari/iOS. Couple alternatives: * Search Google or DDG for “my ip”. * http://checkip.amazonaws.com/

I like Amazon's page because it doesn't return any HTML, just a simple plaintext response which makes it simple to integrate into a script or bash one-liner. Also, Amazon is large enough that I'm confident they're not going to put in a captcha or rate limit.

It is the Unix way :-)
