Expected Behavior

Why don't our web site use short url for very long urls with random text like slack invitation?

I think we can use our own branded short urls (with custom domain) freely with short url services like these:

  • https://www.rebrandly.com/pricing
    • I'm now testing this and looks nice so far.
  • https://bitly.com/
    • most famous service.
    • short url name is unique by all custom domains of free accounts.
    • for example, you cannot use domain.name/chirimen if another.domain.name/chirimen is already used by other bit.ly account.
  • https://short.cm/#prices
    • not tested yet. limited to 5000 access par month for free account.

I think we can set-up with l.chirimen.org domain or something similar.

FYI: I've created short urls for our WebAPIs with my custom domain webapi.link:

Actual Behavior

currently using long urls for all the links.
