Comment on A self-hosted URL shortener: Shlink - A Docker Quick-Start Guide
pulsewidth@lemmy.world 5 weeks agoAh that is probably my bad then, I read it as being able to redirect arbitrary URLs, hence the need for geoblock and abuse protections - if it’s only your own self-hosted/personal domains then yeah that absolutely makes sense.

I think the concern re:geoblock is that the REST API is just out there, unauthenticated. I need to shut those off or limit them to the internal network with Traefik, but I still need the short links to resolve. I’m not sure if that API is used for that, or what. I haven’t explored the code yet.
