Hello everyone. Today I have found /huge-emoji-list.

And I duplicated it into /cocells-emoji.

But why am I speaking of this? Well, since the comment essentially relies on URL. And the list literally consists of almost 87k emojis.

I want to understand what fellow developers have to say about this? Because this generator is pre-loaded with so many resources, but the constrain lies in the URL. After all, it essentially contains 20000000+ characters, well, an estimate.

    No, it must be user-uploads.perchance.org URL. I don’t like seeing generators break, due to people using random file hosts that later shut down (or worse, using random links to e.g. pinterest images, fandom/wiki images, etc. which are often only temporary CDN urls), so my plugins in the future will require using perchance URL uploads in most cases.

      and then when the apocalypse happens and the world needs to restart, all important info of the world will have been saved on the perchance server and it will be easy.

        No, that’d be impractical, unless the server is stored somewhere on space and there was a technology that makes the server accessible from the ground, without any sort of latency or slow connection. But I guess the reason is that the perchance upload server would be guaranteed to be maintained forever so it’s very, very unlikely that a file would randomly disappear from the server.
