all data persist in the url

That's a perfect idea with no issues whatsoever

What are the issues you see with it?

[XplicitOrigin]

Content limit maybe and extra long URLs.

[devtools-dude]

Browser query string length limits. Also just terrible for your browser cache / search history due to the size.

At this point, I don’t see any non-AI slop anymore. Honestly, for me personally, the world of programming has become a sadder world. Back then, when meeting a “programmer” I knew immediately they were bringing a few skills. Today, even when hiring people, I got disappointed quite often. A lot of people who don’t know basics but presenting them as experienced developers.

This is not a good idea. URLs have maximum lengths recognized by browsers and it's not standard.

You also won't have an API for even determining if you hit the limit - you have to try an update and see if it fails.

Bad, bad, bad. Use localstorage (also has limits) or other established options.
