Why

For some reason, when I’m working on things or trying to learn something new, my browser ends up filled with tons of tabs—which makes my laptop-chan angry ~ ₍^. ̫.^₎

I don’t want to close them or bookmark them. I tried manually copying URLs into a .txt file, but then I wished there was a simple way to turn long links into short ones I could use later.

I didn’t want to send anything online, and existing self-hosted URL shorteners felt like overkill for such a small need.

So I made this: a minimal, local-only URL shortener. It started as a single script file and isn’t perfect—but it just works! ~ ദ്ദി/ᐠ｡‸｡ᐟ\
