Was literally about to release a test version of the url shortener when I did some more testing and found some security vulnerabilities, let's fix those first tomorrow 😅

@Condor Of course I care! Fun thing is that this has nothing to do with the application itself, that one is secure enough. Only you can launch ddos and similar hacking attacks when spreading a shortened link, for example. I'll have to rate limit individual shortened links :)

Yup wanna have look!

Is this project up on github?

@TylerDDevRant Nope, for one because I'm not on github (gitlabber here) and for two because I want to find a way through which I can put it online in a bare-bones way, not putting the entire ready to use thingy on there but a version through which people have to make something of their own, for example.

Not sure how/what yet :)

Does it include something to preview the full link?

@StazC Yes! It has a feature which literally prints the url attached to a shortened link on screen.

This to prevent abuse as anyone can check any link anyways.

@linuxxx That's awesome!

@linuxxx Hey if you can, can you make this?

There are some sites that has multiple redirects. Detect them, and show to very last redirection url that your program can predict.
And show the steps of the redirection

@CozyPlanes It'll literally be a thingy which redirects to the url a user shortened, won't even make a request to that url, using regex to kinda check if something is a valid url

@linuxxx you have literally used 3 literally in this post!,🤣

@yendenikhil I use the word a lot 😅

Getting ready for a test deploy though!

@linuxxx all hands on deck!
