When I come across these kinds of product I always think "What if I'm using it and they shut it down?" - All the social media links/posts will break.

Great to come across this product @michaelkramers and looking forward to checking it out - I think you should consider offering both those options to people

@wirddin@michaelkramers what if it was similar to rebrand.ly short links that used subdomains, hmmm...
Can I upvote Pretty Links twice? Seriously - this is an awesome product. I was worried about what Facebook's new changes would mean for my posting abilities, and then I found Pretty Links. All I can say is "WOW!"
Loved the product! Worked like a charm on Telegram. But WhatsApp sadly did not preview the pretty link. But the original FB link worked correctly. Any workarounds?
@michaelkramers I tried making a fresh link and it showed a preview on WhatsApp. It's perfect now, Thanks! WhatsApp is widely used in my circles and people refuse to move to better alternatives. So I essentially have to work with it.
Since July 18th Facebook prevents users from modifying title, description & image when sharing link posts. This was quite useful for marketing and other use cases when you can't easily update the meta information of a page you would like to share.
Pretty Links is a URL shortener that works around this problem. If you are not happy with the Facebook sharing preview you can enter the URL of the page you want to share and set your own title, description and thumbnail image to be used.
I'm getting errors right now, but this looks like an awesome, simple tool!
You can also use https://branch.io for this, though obviously not quite as straight-forward. Useful if you're also dealing with mobile apps though.
