The simplest and the fastes way to find your IP address in Linux Mint is to run the following command in linux terminal:

$ hostname -I

But this is an example, how to find your IP address in internal network. In case you are looking for an external IP address (the address you have in internet), you should run a command:

$ curl ifconfig.me

or

$ curl ident.me

Just keep in mind, that those two commands need internet connection. curl command is just getting your ip address from a websites like ifconfig.me or ident.me . You can check it and type ifconfig.me or ident.me in your browser's address bar.
