What Hacker News says

4 sources
I gave this a shot and was shown > We have analysed 68 links on your website and haven't found a single issue. I'd love to see what this actual list of links was, even if they weren't broken. I'm partially curious because I personally use lychee [1] for this purpose, but when I run lychee (even while ignoring several classes of links), it is checking _significantly_ more links. E.g., the output looks like: > 1401 Total (in 7s) 1361 OK 4 Errors 35 Excluded Curious to understand what it is checking that Bernard is not. [1]: https://github.com/lycheeverse/lychee
In Show HN: Bernard – a link checker for your website
