The tool is called Compiler Explorer, but is hosted at godbolt.org. There's also compliler-explorer.com, which is the same thing. Why not retire the first domain? Just redirect to the namesake domain to prevent link rot.

The godbolt name is so iconic that at $WORK our locally hosted instance of compiler explorer is under the go/godbolt shortcut.

  The go/godbolt shortcut form tells me that WORK=google Is it right?

    I had the go/ shortcut at at least two different jobs. Neither was G. But it is possible that xooglers set it up.

      what kind of shortcut is this? a file path in your code bases?

Because most people colloquially know it as "Godbolt".

Most people I know, including myself, refer to it as godbolt and not compiler explorer. I didn’t know it was hosted anywhere other than godbolt.org

When I want to visit Compiler Explorer, I start typing godbolt, then his Enter when the browser brings up the correct item from my History. "compiler-explorer.com" is also much longer (if you want to type out the whole things).

Funny enough, he has talked about this exact problem on his podcast “Two’s complement”; Specifically the episode “The future of compiler explorer”. Commenters below are correct that it’s just about how heavily associated his name is with the tool. I just figured I’d also drop this source here because he has a lot of interesting things to say about his involvement with the project

  For anyone else wanting to listen to the episode, this site worked well for me: https://podtail.com/en/podcast/two-s-complement/the-future-of-compiler-explorer/ https://podtail.com/en/podcast/two-s-complement/the-future-o... It does have ads, but they were not too intrusive. Scroll down if there’s an ad on first click and there’s a play button that plays the episode. For me the ads it showed were only text and images, not audio interrupting ads. You can also listen to it on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2QXo5c7cUKQ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2QXo5c7cUKQ But since it’s audio only, I preferred listening to it via the aforementioned podcast website.
