On URL Versions: I find it odd that governments (eg Australia) that mandate QR codes to check-in to places have such complex information and detailed codes. This makes scanning the QR code more difficult due to the smaller dot size. This results in people huddling around a single point at a door for longer and closer proximity.
A little tech love such as using short URL’s with an intermediate backend that redirects to the complex site URL with a dozen query parameters would allow much lower resolution (lower version) QR codes that can be scanned faster and/or from a further distance away resulting in better health outcomes. Or at least minimise the negative health outcome from the scanning process.
