I was bored and browsing around today and happened to find this old gist from GitHub's cofounder for generating a more personalized git.io url
I thought it was cool β although for some reason the script wasn't working for me β so I just extracted the important part:
curl -i https://git.io -F 'url=<YOUR_GITHUB_URL>' -F code=<YOUR_CODE>
Then it occurred to me I could just use a # identifier used for scrolling to generate a more useless personalized fun url for myself
Try going to https://git.io/fifo
Hopefully you see this cool greeting like I do in Firefox
Anyways, all I had to do was get the url encoded value of the π emoji which is %F0%9F%91%8B and use that in the curl request
curl -i https://git.io -F 'url=https://github.com/this-fifo/#%F0%9F%91%8B' -F code=fifo
Hope you enjoy your sunday!
