You don’t have to use a third-party short URL service. It can be hosted on your own site.
A lot of people are already using a third-party short URL service like qrco.de because they don’t realise you don’t actually need a service like that to make a QR code.
QR codes have built in redundancy and error correction, though. I guess if they had it turned up to the max for some reason?
yeah, qr codes have different levels of error correction that you can specify, could very be well turned up to the max
or the url has a ton of tracking params appended to it for some reason
Ideally you should use a short URL that redirects to the full URL. The tracking parameters should be on the long URL, not the short one.
Why is that ideal? Seems more prone to problems if the short URL service shuts down or suffers outages.
