Can someone explain whats a URI in simple terms? or Whats a URI and how is it different from a URL?[

whats a uri? Think of it as a Swiss Army knife—it can do lots of things, and URLs are one of its tools.

Examples:
- URI: `magnet:?xt=urnConfusedha1:YNCKHTQCWBTRNJIV4WNAE52SJUQCZO5C` (torrent link, not a URL)
- URL: `https://netflix.com` (standard web link)

TL;DR: All URLs are URIs, but not all URIs are URLs.
