thessnake03@lemmy.world 10 months agoJust based on the url you shared. 11 characters needed. 26 lowercase letters + 26 uppercase letters + 10 numbers = 62 possible characters choices. 62^11=5.2x10^19 possible ids

Its base 64. 26 uppercase + 26 lowercase + 10 digits + - and _. And there’s 11 places, so in total it’s 64^11^.
