What it does
Strip tracking parameters (utm_, fbclid…) and unwrap AMP links — the moment you copy on Mac, and as pages load in Safari on Mac, iPhone & iPad. 100% on-device: no accounts, no servers, no telemetry. One purchase covers every device.
Unfurl strips tracking parameters and unwraps AMP links — the moment you copy on Mac, and as pages load in Safari on Mac, iPhone, and iPad. On-device, no accounts.
Unfurl strips tracking parameters out of your links automatically — the moment you copy on Mac, and as pages load in Safari on Mac, iPhone, and iPad. No tabs to open, no buttons to press, no servers to call. The page you wanted, with none of the bookkeeping. Unfurl rewrites the clipboard in the moment between ⌘ C and ⌘ V — invisibly. On the Mac, Unfurl runs in the menu bar and watches the pasteboard. There's nothing to launch, no buttons to press, no popups in the way — the next link you copy is already clean. In Safari, on Mac and iPhone, the extension does the same as pages load. A small mark in the corner of your screen tells you when it's running and how many trackers it's caught today.…from unfurl.software

Trackless Links Pro for iPhone/iPad/MacNov 2025 · github.com · ▲11Built this because I was tired of sharing URLs full of tracking cruft. Safari extension for iOS and macOS that strips utm_*, fbclid, gclid, and 50+ other tracking parameters automatically. Runs entirely on-device with zero data collection. Also bundles CRED-1, a domain credibility dataset (2,672 flagged domains with 5 independent trust signals) that can warn you before visiting sources known for misinformation. Available on the App Store for iPhone, iPad, and Mac.

PasteClean – Desktop app to strip tracking parameters from clipboardDec 2025 · iixotic.github.io · ▲20I 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.

Happy to discuss any questions here!

Hi HN! I was super frustrated at apps like tiktok and wechat preventing me from saving or downloading the animated gifs, so I made a little tool to turn a screen recording into a slack-sized emoji. Hope you get some value from this!
