What the hell is tse.tf?

My personal URL shortener for all my random crap – projects, sites, and experiments.

The Name

tse.tf stands for
Tom Sykes Extraordinarily . The Fuck

No Bullshit Policy

This isn’t a public service – it’s my personal tool. I create short URLs for my own stuff because I can’t be bothered typing out long, messy addresses.

PSA: Don’t ask for your own short URLs – get your own damn domain!

Why I Built This Thing

1. I’m Lazy

Typing long URLs is for suckers. I’d rather type tse.tf/whatever and be done with it.

2. Branding, Baby

Everything I create has my name on it. Deal with it.

3. Because I Can

I’m a developer, I own the domain, so why not?

4. Consistency is Key

All my stuff in one place with a consistent naming scheme. Simple.

Custom-built with minimal nonsense – does exactly what I need and nothing more.

Remember:

This is MY personal tool. If you want something similar, build your own damn shortener!
