Measurement ideas
Track completion rate from URL paste to successful download (or honest failure). Segment by device class to see whether limitations you should disclose changes outcomes on phones vs desktops.
If you publish changelogs, reference guide #663 when you ship related fixes so internal search stays coherent.
Community guidelines for comment sections
If you enable comments, moderate harassment and spam quickly. Disabled comments with a “contact” link are valid for small teams that cannot moderate 24/7.
Link your rules next to the submit button, not buried in Terms.
Batch jobs and fair-use queueing
Even when policy allows multiple files, rate limits protect your infrastructure and signal good citizenship to platforms you depend on.
Expose queue position honestly instead of infinite “processing” states.
