Clean social links

For Mastodon, X, LinkedIn, Reddit, and more.

Social posts often contain URL add-ons like utm_*, fbclid, or gclid. For people receiving the link, that is usually just noise.

Why clean links before posting?

Cleaner presentation

Short links look clearer and more trustworthy.

Less metadata spread

You pass fewer extra identifiers into feeds and reposts.

Less line-break mess

Long query strings are less likely to wrap badly.

Consistent workflow

Copy → Clean → Share becomes a reliable habit.

How it works in 3 steps

  1. Copy the link from a post, profile, or campaign.
  2. Paste it into SafeShare and clean it.
  3. Use the clean link in your post or DM.

Platform notes

Mastodon / Fediverse

Clean links fit transparent, respectful sharing culture.

LinkedIn / X

Especially in business posts, cleaner URLs look more professional.

Messaging apps

Forwarded links remain easier to read and trust.

Profile links

Keep bio/profile links durable and campaign-noise free.

Do not strip everything blindly

Some parameters are functional (e.g., language/filter state), and some are intentional referral attribution. Review important cases consciously.

SafeShare app uses conservative standard tracking-key cleanup. For fine control, use SafeShare Pro (rules, allowlist, audit).
