| about: | Show HN: SafeShare – strip tracking parameters from links before you share them I built a tiny browser-based tool called SafeShare. You paste a URL, it removes common tracking parameters (utm_source, gclid, fbclid, etc.), tries to unwrap obvious redirect parameters (url=, redirect=, u=…), and shows you a cleaner link to share. There is no login, no accounts, no tracking cookies – it runs as a simple web app on GitHub Pages and processes links locally in the browser. It’s intentionally limited to “link hygiene” and transparency: – It’s not a full security scanner. – It does not follow every redirect hop across the network. – It focuses on cleaning links you want to share (mail, messenger, newsletter, social), not on doing deep inspection. App: https://j-ai-71.github.io/Supersystem/app.html Code: https://github.com/j-ai-71/Supersystem I’d be happy about feedback from this crowd: – Would you actually use a tool like this in your own workflow? – Which parameters or patterns would you expect it to handle that it doesn’t yet? – Is the UX clear enough, or is something confusing/over-engineered? Any comments, criticism or “this is useless, but here’s what would be useful instead” are welcome. |
