Re:llIlI.lI: a URL shortener using only I/l to encode domains by rsync on Sunday May 12, 2024 @01:33PM (#40336089)
"So, I think this hilarious, but link shorteners have to be stable, right?"

Yes, a link shortener does need to be stable but luckily they are extremely simple to operate.

You should be able to run a very popular link shortener on a leftover 1U with very low associated bandwidth and power costs. It's not unrealistic for a person, or group, to commit to this indefinitely.
