      Thank you for the kind words.

      Won’t lie, the main reason that I stuck to a vanilla frontend approach is because I didn’t know what else to do. I’ve never been a frontend dev, and never wish to be one. So I looked at an older project, and started by trying to replicate it. In hindsight, it was probably a good decision. The backend is more intentional though, and I do try to keep things simple and clean.

    I’m already aware of a few small UI oddities. There were quite a few changes in the frontend, so I kind of expect these. Please let me know if you see anything weird. You can comment here, or open a bug report. I expect to do a patch release by tomorrow.

    Software typically has features because people want them, so unnecessary is utterly relative

    I’ve been using your application for my services for almost a month now, though I just have one redirect link at the moment. I just forgot about it after the setup, although you could consider it to be a sign of a good product?

    I wish if there could be additional analytics or logs for the links like a timeline, unique + existing visitors etc, however I completely understand if they cannot be implemented for the sake of keeping the app simple. Thanks for your service regardless!

      I’m happy that you like it. Any kind of analytics or logging is decidedly against my stated policy for this project, so I won’t be adding it. But I understand that some might need it, and in that case, one should look at more comprehensive solutions like YOURLS.
