shortie.sh – a very nerdy url shortener

I love url shorteners as development projects. So GZ on launching one!<p>Looks A+ (am a fan of simplicity)<p>Haven&#x27;t been able to test it yet. It allows me to create a short url but the input field either lets me mark the domain or the code but not both (Mac M1 2020, Chrome) and when I manually go to the link it just shows I am rate-limited.<p>- When visiting the GraphQL and Rest API&#x27;s I get a rate-limit notification (in CA, US)<p>- Its not clear where and how you can get your own instance running, so having a URL to the GitHub repo in the settings next to the input would be nice. Having to find it via the CLI link and then going to the repo via the account is a bit to &quot;hidden&quot; imo. (am just a lazy person)

I wrote this very simple url shortener to be an alternative to bloated programs like tinyurl and bit.ly. It&#x27;s dead-simple and privacy respecting, as well as being open-source and self hostable! The website also has builtin support for self-hosted instances via a settings pane.
