Does this solve any of the problems that other link shorteners have, like eventually breaking when the site goes bankrupt or getting blocked by sites like Reddit due to their ability to conceal spam?
- NohatCoder 2y agoIt is not a link shortener, it is an archive tool. I thought the same thing when I first saw the headline. Their description is really bad and confusing.
- Pikamander2 2y agoOh wow, you're right. I guess the example link on their home page makes that more clear, but at a glance I thought it was supposed to be an attempt at creating a googl/bitly/tinyurl clone. https://perma.cc/63AP-6EHJ https://perma.cc/63AP-6EHJ
- portaouflop 2y agoNo it doesn’t, it will also go down eventually, most likely due to irrelevance or whenever someone at Harvard grows tired of maintaining this pet project or there are problems with the .cc domain. I would be surprised if this will survive past 2035.
