SO links require just the question ID; short enough to memorize. | ||

Sure, but the SO link was just an example. HN does it with any link, like this one which is 1000 characters long: https://example.com/some/path?foo=bar&baz=bat&foo=bar&baz=ba... If the website or app has a good UX for displaying/sharing URLs, the length doesn't really matter. | ||
