Public shortcuts are shortcuts that are accessible to everyone with the shortcut link. This means that people with whom the user shares the shortcut link would be able to access the OSlashed page, without needing to sign up first or become a member of the workspace in which the link was created.
With public shortcuts, it is possible for users to share their shortcuts such as o/my-reading-list with the web. These help users share branded links with everyone on the web and bring the benefit of public link shorteners to OSlash.
A shortcut's access settings can be defined as public at the time of creating a shortcut or editing it. Only the shortcut creator or the admin of the workspace would be able to edit a shortcut to change its access settings to public.
That’s it.
To share a public shortcut with well, the public, you can copy the shortcut link these three ways:
Once copied, you can paste the shortcut in any text editor to share it with the web.
🪄 Tip: You can view all the public shortcuts in a workspace under the Public tab on the OSlash dashboard
