  • my proposal still allows for that because the title part can always still be omitted when entering the URL

    These links are completely ugly. Short links are perfectly clean and should be by default.

    As a WebDev student we are taught to take into account that.

    Recently, we started to modify an app (in order to learn BladeOne template engine) and got the way to show urls in a WebApp by “folder” addresses.

    Basically, the WebApp overwrites the default web address and replace its structure following a hierarchy in the sense of example.com/, example.com/user/ (a list of users), example.com/user/1 (specific user), example.com/user/create (create a new user), etc.

    And this is a recommended way here.





  • In the raw install docs I would like:

    • OpenRC or SysVInit service examples
    • Apache HTTPD configuration example
    • Adapt the Certbot script as it is being ran as a general distribution when the fact is that Debian-based distros already provide Nginx and Apache HTTPD plugins (which makes it easy to configure through the TUI) and it is being ran as a cronjob by default at /etc/cron.d/certbot

  • For the case of Invidious, a redirector exists at https://redirect.invidious.io/ which could be used as intermediate point in this case.

    mostly agnostic about the links being posted

    I would like if people wanting to get content without executing nonfree stuff or privacy/security aware could have it easy and not just be the second-class citizens everywhere.

    Other way to address this could be redirecting the posters to these software and services to post these links instead of being solely done by Lemmy. In this way is the person who post the one who must solve the problem.
