Show HN: Get Your IP Address
Developer whizzx launched ip.ysebie.be, a simple web service that returns your IPv4 or IPv6 address in multiple formats.
Developer whizzx launched ip.ysebie.be, a lightweight web service that returns a visitor's IPv4 or IPv6 address in different formats, according to a Show HN post submitted on August 22, 2026.
The service is available at ip.ysebie.be and supports both IP version 4 and IP version 6 lookups. The author describes it as offering results in "different formats," though the specific output options — such as plain text, JSON, or others — are not detailed in the HN submission.
Per the Show HN post, whizzx built the tool primarily for personal use, describing it as "a quick project that I needed myself that might be usefull to somebody else." No company, team size, funding, or prior milestones are associated with the project.
IP-lookup utilities are a well-established category of developer tooling, with existing services such as ifconfig.me, ipify.org, and icanhazip.com occupying the same space. The HN post does not cite any differentiating features relative to those alternatives, and the author explicitly notes the project is "not interesting" beyond its practical utility.
No roadmap, expansion plans, or further development intentions were mentioned in the submission. The post had one point and no comments at time of publication.
