Good idea! :)

Hey, just so that it is spoken out: If you wanted to implement some of those suggestion, please feel formally invited. Not saying I won't do it, but I wouldn't mind PRs on top of these good suggestions!

You may want to set up different messages and/or redirect to different pages depending on the request. These should check whether the pipe exists before trying to process them:

[ ] https://www.pipes.digital/pipe/random
[ ] https://www.pipes.digital/feedpreview/random
[ ] https://www.pipes.digital/feed/random

You can first verify the length of the ID. If it's longer than X characters, don't even connect to the database to look it up.
