Host content to be accessed via QR code

[humptydumpty]

@BrutalBirdie Any idea if Kutt's QR code uses Google Chart API or is it created locally?

[BrutalBirdie]

@humptydumpty no no no you got me all wrong KUTT does not generate a QR-Code, this is your job.

Go further down.

[humptydumpty]

@BrutalBirdie Oh okay I'm using Yourls and was going to switch to Kutt if it generated the QR code. I found a QR code plugin for Yourls but it uses Google Chart API. I prefer to avoid using Google services if possible so I'm still on the lookout for a more seamless integration/workflow.

@humptydumpty looking at the Github repo, Kutt does generate QR code, from a react library.

I've never used it though, so I can't confirm it works. ; )

[BrutalBirdie]

@ruihildt wait what? OHHH IT DOES!

I did not know about this feature as well

What is Kutt's idle RAM usage? Yourls is showing as 11mb in my graphs.

[BrutalBirdie]

@humptydumpty

~200MB RAM

[humptydumpty]

@BrutalBirdie That's great. I can spare 200mb. Thanks!

Wow. Kutt is much nicer than Yourls. The CR docs mention that you can add your email to the admin, contact, and report fields in the .env file. However, that email is displayed on the "report" page for all to see (if you fill in the report and contact fields) so keep that in mind.

Also, you can only report a shortened URL that is using the main domain and none of the alias-based URLs (if that applies to you) so the whole feature is useless if you have multi-domains and open registration.

Phenomenal!

You have a way of making things simple.

Thank you!

Watch out for the open registration for kutt, after creating your users disable the registration, otherwise spammers can use your kutt.
