Vivoldi – A privacy-friendly URL shortener with QR codes and analytics

Hacker News

Hi HN, I built a URL shortening tool called Vivoldi to help marketers, developers, and creators manage short links with more control and transparency. Most shorteners either lack features or force branding, so Vivoldi offers: - Real-time click analytics - QR code generation - Custom domains and link aliases - Expiration, password protection, and fallback links - Mobile deep linking (e.g., open Instagram/YouTube app directly) Check it out here: https://en.vivoldi.com Would love your feedback or suggestions!
