by Firefox user 18593980, 2 months agoThe best tool I have ever used. I have tested many types of URLs and it works perfectly with full filters to avoid fraudulent, scam or phishing links. Many thanks to the author, because it helps me a lot and it is also a challenge for scammers.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 18539452, 3 months agoAddon refuses to make shorten on some sites due to "Error: This URL contains blacklisted keywords." Have no idea why author decided that huge online marketplace contain anything bad in url, but i certanly can't recommend to use it as addon can fail you at any moment for reasons known only to developer.
Developer response
posted 15 days agoActually, our tool includes a blacklist and various security methods to prevent shortening potentially harmful links, such as those used for spam or phishing. While this feature is designed to protect users, it can sometimes block legitimate URLs that contain keywords similar to those found in malicious links. If you are confident that your link is safe, you can contact the developer for clarification to allow an override or whitelist for your trusted domain.
You shouldn't rate before fully understanding how the tool works. It's too harsh and may not reflect the tool's potential. - Rated 5 out of 5by Tomas, 8 months agoThis shortens my URL instantly with a single click and at the same time copies it to the clipboard. It also uses some filters for bad URLs. The shortened link has a splash page and redirects you in just 3 seconds, it may save your links from being blocked by spam on the social media pages. Highly recommended!
