@feditips@mstdn.social What if the URL to my link is 10TB in size?

@feditips@mstdn.social So only the first 23 characters are shown and rest are hidden? But surely there must be some limit on the length of the actual URL? Otherwise it would be a major vulnerability. Feeling kinda inclined to test this..

@feditips@mstdn.social specifically https? Old school links don't qualify?

@feditips@mstdn.social So a shortener is still useful if you get the length to under 23?

@feditips@mstdn.social I tried you can make a link clickable with just http:// https:// is more modern though. http://fark.com https://fark.com

@feditips@mstdn.social Are you sure about the last part? I get links without protocol like massivebox.net as clickable on the Mastodon web client, Pleroma web client and Husky.

@feditips@mstdn.social Link shorteners are used almost exclusively for tracking nowadays, so people who use them will continue using them.

@feditips@mstdn.social Aslong as url shorteners are being used, I will continue to check them through virustotal...
