[Meta] Just coded an easy link skipper that specifically works for sh.st links. | Megalinks MegaDB [Meta] Just coded an easy link skipper that specifically works for sh.st links.

[Here's all the code] (https://github.com/starbuck93/handy-link-skipper).

It's a simple | Megalinks MegaDB simple web interface to forward you through links from sites like tuserie.

I included the curl-test.php file so you can easily grab the link on the command line, if you're into that sort of thing.

Edit: Here's a screenshot of the web interface.

Edit2: Here's the live version!

Edit3: We made a Chrome extension to add a right-click menu option when you right click on a sh.st/any.gs link!

have no clue how this works or how to do it but its worth a shot. those extra steps suck

This is great, because for some reason default Android webview can't seem to handle sh.st links and never lets me press the skip button!

Is anyone available to host it, though?

Once this link is live, it'll work: http://handylink.net/

To get the actual download link you have to wait for a few seconds on an advertisement site before getting redirected to the download link and in order to skip this advertisement site he created this little tool.

woah, the 90s are calling

[-] [deleted] | 1 points | Nov 05 2015 19:10:41

not really I am just thanking him for his work its a useful tool and mirroring it and offerinh him advice , if he puts it on sourceforge it will get used by alot more people

[-] starbuck93 | 2 points | Nov 06 2015 03:05:53

the only reason I would disagree is the fact that my adblocker blocks sourceforge by default

[-] [deleted] | 1 points | Nov 06 2015 20:58:28

thats really strange I have never heard of sourceforge being blocked , why would it be? its a open sourcen project hosting website like github but more geared towards delivering working software VS collaberating on projects like github.

what adblocker is it?

sourceforge is a fucking joke these days. Who the fuck uses it?
