Strip tracking parameters from URLs instantly
- 1PD
I built a small desktop tool called PasteClean to solve a personal annoyance: sharing URLs filled with tracking garbage (utm_source, fbclid, etc.). It runs in the background and automatically cleans URLs in your clipboard when you copy them. It handles 50+ tracking parameters and can also unshorten links (bit.ly, t.co) to reveal the destination and clean them before pasting. Tech stack is Electron/React/TypeScript. The core privacy features are free. I added a "Pro" lifetime license for some advanced features (unshortening, batch mode) to support development.

My partner usually writes substack posts which I then mirror to our website’s blog section. To automate this, I made a simple tool to scrape the post and clean it so that I can drop it to our blog easily. This might be useful to others as well. Oh and ofcourse you can instruct GPT to make any final edits :D

Was bored at work so I threw this together. First bash at a Node app. Built a simple Chrome extension for it too.

Hi! I recently created a little tool called LinkToMarkdown (](https://linktomarkdown.com/)). It extracts web content and generates clean Markdown text with just one click. To be honest, I developed this tool purely out of personal need. I often want to save articles from the web, but I'm always frustrated by ads, pop-ups, and all sorts of clutter. One day, I'd had enough and thought, "Why isn't there a tool that can give me just the plain text?" So I decided to roll up my sleeves and build it myself. That's how LinkToMarkdown was born. It can: 1. Automatically filter out junk…

I get it, ChatGPT is cool and you can do plenty with it. But I'm getting tired that every other post is about ChatGPT, and every other comment is about ChatGPT's take on a topic. So I made this bookmarklet to remove comments and posts about ChatGPT (including this one) from HN. Drag and drop the text below to your browser bar, give it a name like "Remove ChatGPT", and get rolling. Whenever you load submissions or a specific comment thread, just click the bookmarklet and the page will be ChatGPT (And even ChatGTP) free. javascript:(function() {if…

I'm sick and tired of clicking interesting links on the HN front page, only to get a spinning loader and waiting 10+ seconds for nothing. I'm not going to take the time to find the Google cache for your site, so if you want me to read what you wrote, please consider doing at least the bare minimum to keep your site running when I visit: 1. Use a static page cache / serve static HTML. Either use something like Varnish, or if you don't want to configure it or you're on a shared host, use one of the following extensions/techniques to statically cache pages: - Wordpress:…
