Interesting observation.
/etc/netplan/
What does it say here? Static IP or DHCP/Dynamic IP?
Don't leak your personal details.

may be the router is treating your linux and windows as two different device
but I don't think its possible if you have dual booted
since both the operating system is sharing the same network interface card
basically the router maps
mac address with ip address
in the local network
mac address will be same in both the operating system

Maybe the Ubuntu config has a reserved Mac address?

okay tell me one thing
do you use bharatchan on incognito mode on windows and linux
also execute these command and verify if the ip is same in both the cases
for linux :
ip a
for windows :
ipconfig /all

no bro ip address can't be reserved its unique for each devices connected to the internet
for each device there is single mac address
although some operating system like Tail OS can spoof mac address

okay
so it might be because there are two different cookies stored for you
so there is a cookie "connect.sid" in bharatchan
which is used to verify users
if its different on both linux and windows
then it will treat it as 2 different users
hence 2 different ids will be shown

that is one thing you are right about, now there is one thing where my id stays same in linux even after days but same doesnt occur in windows.

hello anon, unemployed coderjeet here - the bharatchan server receives your PUBLIC IP and your user agent when you make a post. check your PUBLIC IP at https://whatismyipaddress.com
it DOES NOT receive your mac address or local ip or any other bullshit posted by the other anons.
you are probably behind CGNAT because indian isps want to cuck you. so restarting your router usually won't change your PUBLIC IP
yeah and it probably stores some session cookies i won't waste my time looking around. ask dayush

router uses mac address to assign ip address to devices
bharatchan doesn't use mac address but your router does

Forget about anything else above, I figured it out.
When you use windows, the ipv4 IP is being prioritized, due to it being an older system, there are lesser no. of total IPv4 addresses in the world. Thus a different one is assigned every time you restart your router.
Linux is prioritizing the ipv6 IP address(which should happen anyways), due to basically a never ending no. of ipv6 addresses, the jio/airtel/whatever router you uses sticks to the same one regardless of it being restarted.

And yeah, you get both ones(unless you manually disable one) each time, but sites only need one to function so it is upto the browser which one to send, in one connection only one can be sent anyways but it is possible to request for both (for example when you go to whatismyip, etc).
Ipv6 is supposed to be prioritized anyways because it is faster due to more efficient packets but windows is doing some retardation.
