Best Rather's Link Shortener Alternatives in 2026

About Rather's Link Shortener

Not replacing a link with a short link that could go anywhere. No redirect service, no link wrapper, nothing that hides where a link goes. Your link stays your link, same page and same site, just without the hundreds of characters of tracking IDs, session tokens, and search breadcrumbs stuffed onto the end. The address-bar URL is rewritten in place, so the link you copy to share is the clean canonical form. The sites it covers add up to more than a quarter of all visits on the web: over a hundred billion page visits every month, including twelve of the world's twenty most-visited sites. If someone sent you a long, junk-covered link today, odds are it came from a page this extension cleans. WHAT GETS CLEANED Nearly three hundred popular sites are supported, spanning shopping and resale, travel and maps, real estate and jobs, social media, video and music, design and stock photos, developer tools, cloud file-sharing, online learning, search, cloud documents, and a news pack covering more than fifty outlets across every world region. Each has hand-tuned rules for that site's URL structure.
