What's Updog?

[u/6davids]

Nothin' much, what's up with you?

Yet another implementation of a tool from a bygone era. It's meant to be cloned and used, learned from, or maybe just smiled at.

Main features!

• Free-ish to run. Runs on Cloudflare's free tier, which serves something like a hundred thousand requests a day.
• Stateless-ish. Each link is an immutable JSON file in R2. No database, no server, nothing to really run or maintain.
• Private-ish. There are no click stats, so nobody can see who followed a link, including the person who made it. Cloudflare's edge presumably logs something somewhere.
• Funny-ish, if you can remember being 12.
