- vpbusvltsmtk 5y agoI like this
- lopatin 5y agoFun stuff, but my shortened link didn't work. Maybe system is under load. Here's another gem by the author: https://existentialcrisis.sh https://existentialcrisis.sh
- j3s 5y agoThe load issue should be fixed lolz. for now. https://git.j3s.sh/poop.is/commit/372cf8c99e4b093d678b090c3b4e91b0a6f079f8 https://git.j3s.sh/poop.is/commit/372cf8c99e4b093d678b090c3b...
- spicybright 5y agoYou should have it randomly drop requests every so often lol
- dragonshed 5y agoI shortened its own url and it yielded “https://poop.is/remorseful” https://poop.is/remorseful”. A+

- pkulak 5y agoIs it crappy because it doesn’t do anything?
- j3s 5y agoI just "fixed" an adjective list bug - sorry about that! it should work now.
- gknoy 5y agoI'm sorry to report that it gives a new shortening each time you submit the new address, and now I'm not sure if my kid caused you to have 30 extra records for the same address. All the same, thank you for this, it's awesome and made my morning. :)
- j3s 5y agoBahaha, I'm glad you and your kid had some fun with it :D

- jaytaylor 5y agoThe author's website is refreshing in the current age of blogspam SEO optimization. Worth a glance and they sound friendly! Even though there is the suspiciously consistent scatalogical theme.. https://j3s.sh/ https://j3s.sh/

Worth a glance and they sound friendly! wow thank you! this means a lot - i spend a lot of time making my website(s) small and unique. i appreciate you noticing this. > Even though there is the suspiciously consistent scatalogical theme ಠ_ಠ
- j3s 5y agoHey all - author here. This amazing feat of engineering uses a hardcoded list of adjectives, and apparently pegs at 100% when the full list is consumed. Here's the sauce: https://git.j3s.sh/poop.is/tree/master/main.go https://git.j3s.sh/poop.is/tree/master/main.go I've restarted it and I'm working on making it more resilient, lol. I didn't expect so many hits. Truly the crappiest link shortener.
- malkia 5y agoHeh, but it needs explicit http:// http:// or https:// https:// in front :)
- edmcnulty101 5y agoit just redirects back to the main page?
- j3s 5y agoThe generated poop.is link should redirect back to whatever link you entered. I just deployed some changes and you may have been caught in the middle of them - feel free to try again if you'd like.
- edmcnulty101 5y agoI'm having issues. When I click on any link in these comments or copy and paste any that I creat, it just sends me to the main poop.is page.
- j3s 5y agohm, strange. what link are you entering?
- davepdotorg 5y agoI'm going to guess folk with this issue are leaving off the protocol. Look at the `Location` header you get back if you've asked to shorten example.com (which displays this issue) vs https://example.com https://example.com (which doesn't).
- amelius 5y agoThis can be used to store data. Someone should build a filesystem that runs on top of it.

- indianmouse 5y agoSomehow, I am amused by the author's liking towards crap!!! shitchat poop and such crappy things as the names! Just for fun though!
