This release brings three main changes.

  1. The ability to filter links.
  2. Support for an optional notes field.
  3. Ability to edit expiry time and notes.

I try not to too many new features to avoid bloat, but it seemed like these were pretty useful for a link shortener, especially when managing thousands of short links. (To my surprise, some people even use it to manage millions of links.)

Please take a look at the release notes for a complete list of changes.

P.S. The next thing I’ll be focusing on is improving throughput under sustained load. If anyone has experience with SQLite, feel free to drop any tips. All the db related code is here. I’m mostly interested in improving insert speeds when 1000s of inserts are done per second.

    Dude…one of the most cornball things I’ve ever heard in my life but has some truth to it is ‘You can’t fix stupid.’ It’s 2026! Spool up. I would guess that the biggest portion of those morons are boomers, yet still, it’s 2026. I’m sorry to sound so harsh but I really tire of the older set especially, but pretty much anyone in a technologically developed country claiming not to be technologically inclined. They had no flipping problem learning FaceBook. ‘How to Use A Computer Tutorial’ search turns up thousands of tutorials on that very topic. Unless you live in a remote area or a technologically underdeveloped country where technology is not readily accessible to the common man, then yeah. I’m a septuagenarian and I learned. I have no certs, or diplomas, or any thing, which should be obvious, but I get by pretty decent I’d say. It’s pretty much attainable by the vast majority of people if they’d only put a little effort into it.
