    If you want to make clickable links with this code, you can use URL Pages.

    It's a small JavaScript application to store entire web pages in URLs. I made it after learning that links with data URLs are no longer clickable.

    The limits are definitely shorter now. I also checked when I created URL Pages [0], which hosts entire web pages in the URL.

    However there is a link shortener that is quietly hosted by GitHub called https://git.io that doesn't seem to have a length limit as far as I've discovered. [1]

    Having written two apps that do this, I can confirm that it is an amazing technique, and criminally underutilized! My projects store and render entire pages from the URL and encrypt URLs (respectively):
