Both good options but neither does IPv6 AFAIK.

There used to be one at ifconfig.dev but I don’t know what happened to it

IPv6: curl http://ipv6.whatismyip.akamai.com curl http://ipv6.whatismyip.akamai.com/advanced

IPv4: curl http://whatismyip.akamai.com curl http://whatismyip.akamai.com/advanced

Both hosts are distributed around the world using the Akamai platform and should be fast for everyone.
