Cette appli m'a beaucoup manqué lorsqu'elle n'a plus marché en 2018. Cool ! Elle re-fonctionne depuis 2024. Très pratique, elle permet entre'autre de retrouver tous nos raccourcis bit.ly Un indispensable.

Infelizmente diminuíram a quantidade de links criados para usuários "logados" sem plano pago. Era a melhor ferramenta com essa finalidade. Encontrei uma e recomendo a todos para substituir essa enquanto estiver com essa limitação. "Url Shortener" ou então nesse link: https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/url-shortener/godoifjoiadanijplaghmhgfeffnblib
