The glitch.me domain serves as the primary hosting infrastructure for user-generated web projects and applications. It is operated by Glitch, a subsidiary of Fastly, Inc..
glitch.me is a well-established platform operated by Glitch. Top 100,000 global website, 17 years old. Standard web safety practices apply.
While glitch.me is an established platform, these capabilities require extra vigilance.
glitch.me hosts content created by its users, not the platform operator. Individual posts, profiles, or pages may contain scams, misinformation, or phishing attempts that the platform hasn't yet detected or removed.
glitch.me allows users to create custom addresses like "anything.glitch.me". An address like "paypal-secure.glitch.me" may look official but is actually controlled by whoever registered that subdomain—not Glitch.
Remember: The platform itself is established, but even established platforms can be abused.
