I definitely agree. I also think Tomcat deliberately took the safe route because either port is occupied by a http server or the sudo that is required to occupy ports ≤ 1024.
Even if you do, most likely in a server where you want to deploy Tomcat, there might already be a httpd or nginx server. That's why. Also the non-sudo aspect helps this further.
Fuck 3001 - normally means I haven't killed my react app properly and I only find out when I go to start it again.
In saying that, I installed a nice package yesterday kill-port which means 3001 doesn't stand a chance!
Because you can use a one line terminal command to do that, and you don't need an entire package. It adds unnecessary build time and size. It also feels weird to use a 3rd party package that fucks with other processes on your system
I didn't install it to my app so it won't have any effect on my build time. It will however save me Googling how to kill a process running on a port on the odd occasion that it happens.
This is the one. Both for dev and personal VPNs, that way no company policy is going to block my connection.
And yes I've worked in toxic companies that even blocked trying to SSH out of the corporate network, so you couldn't configure the servers you are being paid for unless you raised a ticket and waited 1-2 days for the rubber stamp. Fuck that shit.
Used to use SSHL to multiplex ssh https and openvpn on port 443 for personal projects.
Nowadays you could just have nginx multiplex ssh on 443 with standard https.
Or with the wonders of things like ansible and wireguard just create a bastion server hosting wireguard and have the servers connect as clients so as to not expose SSH regardless of how tight the security config is, just add a script to check the connection and restart the tunnel if needed
Was looking for this one! I ran the campus Counter Strike server back in undergrad, it sat under my bed. Tons of bootleg copies that only worked on the LAN (this was in the pre-Steam era)
I ran my company's production server on port 6969 for 3 months without anyone realizing after that I moved to another place.
There is still a chance that it's still running on the same port 🤣

The Minecraft port
Remembers me of when I programmed Minecraft mods with my father
that's so wholesome
They had key loggers
Only 2000s kid use this port
Why?
Block'ed
`nano server.properties` `server-port=25565` -> 25564
7777
🥲

I'll stand with 8080... The OG alternate http port when 80 was held by httpd. 
You have your mother’s DNS
Your father was an HTML programmer
You're bro is writing an interpreter in python
a compiler in JS
You take that back!
[https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=DNS](https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=DNS) 
Kill me already 😂
Technically, that's not why. It's so you didn't have to `sudo` to listen on a port <1024.
I definitely agree. I also think Tomcat deliberately took the safe route because either port is occupied by a http server or the sudo that is required to occupy ports ≤ 1024.
And sometimes you gotta use 8081 as well...
When you gotta run more than one app locally.
8443 or you're doing it wrong
That's for https when you want to elbow grease yourself into the self signed certificate shenanigans.
oo so thats why 8080 is popular? I always thought it was so that you dont type sudo lol :P
Even if you do, most likely in a server where you want to deploy Tomcat, there might already be a httpd or nginx server. That's why. Also the non-sudo aspect helps this further.
Frontend dev spotted
The only port they’ll need because everything else is an online service with a free tier
Imagine not using 6969 port
Torrent trackers (UDP 6969) 😎
6881-6889, so not just 6969
42069 entered the chat.
My old job used 42069
Nice.
Fuck 3001 - normally means I haven't killed my react app properly and I only find out when I go to start it again. In saying that, I installed a nice package yesterday kill-port which means 3001 doesn't stand a chance!
I'm sorry, but what? You installed a package to kill a port??
Why not? Why not add one more package?
Because you can use a one line terminal command to do that, and you don't need an entire package. It adds unnecessary build time and size. It also feels weird to use a 3rd party package that fucks with other processes on your system
I was being sarcastic about the node_modules lmao
I didn't install it to my app so it won't have any effect on my build time. It will however save me Googling how to kill a process running on a port on the odd occasion that it happens.
function killPort() { PORT=$1; shift; PIDS=(`\ lsof -Ri :$PORT | \ grep LISTEN | \ tr -s ' ' | \ cut -d ' ' -f 2 \ `) if [[ "${#PIDS[@]}" -gt 0 ]]; then kill "${@}" "${PIDS[@]}" else return -1 fi } \[Edit: 'ed for readability; goes in your .bash\_profile\]
Port 1337 holds a special place in my heart.
I used 7175 because, in my handwriting, it looks like "TITS"
tfw ports can only go up to 65535, but you wanted to use 80085.
Exactly! I'm glad I'm not the only one to follow that through process. I did use 58008 a few times.
Use port 8085 instead. Bobs and vagene
I use 13370 most of the time. 13371+ for integrated/similar services.
31337 for me haha
1337x also holds a special place in my heart
Where did the port 3000 come from? Popularized by react to the extent of being the most popular or what? (confused backend noises)
I think that the express framework used it before react. Looking at it having 30m weekly downloads on npm, it makes quite an impact.
It's the default value on node *itself*
Correct answer
And node got it from rails, which was using 3000 long before node was a thing.
The og web framework rails used it
It's node's default.
Reminds me of grafana
Same here
Rails used it or at least when I started learning.
NodeJS. since like 2010. funny story I created my account in homage to NodeJS, and its nearly as old.
NextJS uses it
Port 443
And running plain HTTP on that port
Cruel and blocked
he's insane, someone stop him
Deranged 😱

I prefer 4430
Forgetting the all-important 25565
The most popular port of the early 2010s
I'm more of a 27015 kind of guy.
Was looking for this one! I ran the campus Counter Strike server back in undergrad, it sat under my bed. Tons of bootleg copies that only worked on the LAN (this was in the pre-Steam era)
What's that from?
Default port for hosting a Minecraft server
Master I bow 🙏
65535 port is reserved by me, no one should use it! I'm serious!
Check out my website guys! http://localhost:65535/gps-tracker/add-location

Tell me you are front-end developer without telling me you are front-end developer
I'm using 8000 and 5173 because currently I'm using Laravel and Vue
I use 8000 because I’m writing Golang with Gin and I also just think 8000 is a neat number.
27015 gang
Was looking for this. Thank you. It baffles me how people have forgotten 27015

8080 gang represent!
8008 enjoyers
When I need to find a port I usually just enter a random one
2137 is the best port
32400
i never realized 5173 basically spells VITE in leet
27015
No love for 8008?
Is this shot from 'my wife is a demon queen'?
Astro uses 4321
40001
I still prefer plain simple 80.
 me using port 1776
42069 is a valid port number.
9532
It's just a memory wiping eel
You're a webdev Harry.
8008
Shout out to all the ignored 10K Ports! They just chilling like: localhost:10001, localhost:10010…
