A year of steady growth
Over the past year, goose.re has grown from a simple link shortener into a smarter and more flexible platform. What started as a minimal tool for shortening URLs slowly evolved into a service focused on usability, performance, and privacy.
Rather than chasing trends or adding unnecessary complexity, every change in 2025 was guided by a clear philosophy: keep things fast, transparent, and under the user’s control. This approach allowed goose.re to remain lightweight while still expanding its capabilities.
Throughout the year, features were refined step by step. Small interface improvements, backend optimizations, and quality-of-life changes added up to a noticeably smoother experience. The platform stayed minimal on the surface, but became more powerful behind the scenes.
Community impact
The community played a major role in shaping goose.re during 2025. With more than 100 registered users actively creating and sharing links, the platform proved that even small, focused tools can build meaningful engagement.
Over 150 links were shortened and shared, ranging from personal projects to public resources. Bio pages also saw steady adoption, reaching 25 unique pages by the end of the year. This showed a growing interest in having a simple, privacy-respecting alternative to larger platforms.
Feedback from users helped identify what mattered most: clarity, reliability, and control. These insights directly influenced how new features were designed and which ideas were postponed or dropped entirely.
What changed in 2025
- 🎨 A refreshed design focused on clarity, readability, and a more modern look
- 🔍 Improved analytics offering clearer insights without sacrificing privacy
- 🧠 Smart routes functionality, enabling link behavior based on language and other factors
Individually, these updates may appear small. Together, however, they form a solid foundation for future development. Each improvement was designed to scale naturally without compromising the original goals of simplicity and speed.
2025 was not about explosive growth, but about building something stable, reliable, and ready for what comes next. The groundwork laid this year opens the door for more advanced features while staying true to the platform’s minimal roots.
