- ad0n1s_97 7y agoi like this one, so a kind of human readable short url would be great...
- lioeters 7y agoHmm, it might defeat the purpose of a URL shortener, but I pictured something like what3words [0] (geocoding with memorable/human-readable words) but for URLs - for example: big.brown/bear [0] https://what3words.com/ https://what3words.com/
