shreyan (wise)But... They are!!

Marko SeppänenAlternate universe where URLs are part of filesystem hierarchy.
For example:
/proto/https/app/bsky
Evil. I know.

🦊Vulpes NeuroticaWell... But URLs ARE case sensetive. Not the domane names, but "path" part is not imply any case-isensitivity rule, and most servers by default will distinguish some.domain/Some/Path and some.domain/some/path
... ->
2 1Samuelsorry I meant domain names, yes obviously the path part is case sensitive
1🦊Vulpes NeuroticaA, got it, it make sense
1 1🦊Vulpes NeuroticaHowever, I'm pretty sure I can make apache httpd virtual host module distinguishing domains with only case different.
(Evil laugh)
1 1🦊Vulpes NeuroticaMoreover, if we speak about an abstract url schema://host/path besides http, as an identifier (without implicit domain name resolution process) even the host part may be processed in casse-sensetive way
1 1🦊Vulpes NeuroticaI faced the case sensitivities for domain names in some implementation of xml schema directory ten+ years ago. Even now I'm unsure if threre is explicit requirements to treat it as c-isensetive
