I have my own URL shortener at https://jcu.bi domain and I use
https://yourls.org/ that is written in PHP. It's good for personal usage but
for go.scheme.org I think that git repo will be much better, since we can
curate what is added.

One think that would be nice is some kind of analytics for the clicks. It's
not tracking just count how many times the link was open it may be useful for
people that create those links. This is not private data so this can be
public to everyone. But I'm not sure how difficult it will be to add.

yourls have counter but also nice graph that show when people visited the
page and from what countery (probably based on IP address).
