I've restarted it and I'm working on making it more resilient, lol. I didn't expect so many hits.
The author's website is refreshing in the current age of blogspam SEO optimization. Worth a glance and they sound friendly! Even though there is the suspiciously consistent scatalogical theme..
I'm sorry to report that it gives a new shortening each time you submit the new address, and now I'm not sure if my kid caused you to have 30 extra records for the same address. All the same, thank you for this, it's awesome and made my morning. :)
The generated poop.is link should redirect back to whatever link you entered. I just deployed some changes and you may have been caught in the middle of them - feel free to try again if you'd like.
I'm going to guess folk with this issue are leaving off the protocol. Look at the `Location` header you get back if you've asked to shorten example.com (which displays this issue) vs https://example.com (which doesn't).

Truly the crappiest link shortener.
