Maybe I don't get something, here, buy as I understand it, the url contains all the data so you are effectively providing the information wherever the link is posted. Thus, if the posted link is gone, the data is gone, the generator-webpage doesn't really have anything to do with it.
- elcomet 7y agoWell yes of course, that's a trade off. But for some cases it can be useful. It makes censorship impossible as there are no server that host the data.
- adminu 7y agoBut the way to "share" information this way is to just send it to someone else. You could instead just send a text file or an image, it's the same (except, you could actually encrypt it). After all this is exactly as censorship resistant as direct communication today. The, "there is no server" argument doesn't hold if you want someone else to ever get your message. It's just either your chat app or some website where the "link" is posted. I don't see any value added.
- elcomet 7y agoYou're right, you convinced me it has little real value. But it's still a fun project !
- vikramkr 7y agoBut you still have to share the data, what's the difference between sharing the url and sharing a message?
