2023-11-23 Firefox user 13447130 This is exactly what I've been looking for. I've been using ClearURLs to remove tracking data but they don't remove some information from certain links like Amazon that would greatly shorten these links. This extension does even more than that by leveraging the even shorter domain names that websites offer for links but don't expose easily. Great extension!

2021-12-01 大頭 Can you add is.gd back if it's ok now? And I find kutt.it can't register an account. Shows "Signup has been disabled temporarily.". I can't get the API key from kutt.it now.
2021-11-09 Firefox user 6772518 I've been using Copy ShortURL for a number of years and have been very pleased with its simplicity of use and convenience. I use it primarily when communicating long URLs in emails and social media posts, where long URLs become clunky and distracting to read, or where space is at a premium. I was particularly excited to learn that V.5.3.0 has restored is.gd to its list of URL shorteners!

2021-10-28 MT Excellent, thank you.
2021-10-26 Harry This was the best shorturl I have ever used until about 3 weeks ago, when it would give an error instead of shortening the url. Recently it will use the tinyurl,app. My main social media is minds.com and minds won't let me use tinyurl, because they say it links to spam. There are now 12 websites which I receive newsletters from that they use the tinyurl on. Copy shorturl is no longer my favorite.
