I chose bug and question because this feature is not documented and I thus, as a user, have no idea what I should get.

I tried the Windows nightly of kiwix-serve including #1132 (seems to be the one, as the ipv4 issue is gone) and I got the following:

C:\Mac\Home\Downloads\kiwix-tools_win-x86_64-2024-10-14>kiwix-serve.exe -p 8001 c:\Users\reg\python-libzim\rlz\test.zim
The Kiwix server is running and can be accessed in the local network at:
  - http://127.0.0.1:8001/
  - http://[::1]:8001

Based on the sentence, I guess I should have received local addresses in addition to the loop back ones (the sentence is false otherwise).

The getBestPublicIps function name is not helping I guess and the docstring neither: what's best?
