@b0rk This, when I started in IT not much was on the Internet, man pages, another person, or dead tree books were the first place you looked. As time has progressed, search engines slowly surpassed man pages and books, until recently, now I generally will use a man page before a search, or even an ai, but I have a deep instinctual aversion to ai

Boost if you'd like to be left behind and would consider paying extra for a life without this bullshit.

There is a new short domain name for #PuTTY!
At present, this is just a "landing page": a nice short name to remember, which will redirect you to the full PuTTY website at the same longer URL where it's always been.
But unlike putty.org or other third-party landing pages, this one is run by us, the actual PuTTY team, and it doesn't have a weird separate agenda of its own.
I intend to move the main PuTTY site over to that domain in the future, and leave just a redirector at the old location. But first I want to get the word out, so that people know which site to trust.
If anyone is still linking to putty.org, here's a place to link to instead. Please spread the word!
