**expandurl-mastodon** is a Mastodon bot that expands shortened URLs.
|
|
|
|
If you want the bot to expand an URL, reply to the post with the URL in it and
|
|
mention the bot account (`@expandurl@botsin.space` for example).
|
|

|
|
|
|
This bot uses the same visibility as you, but posts unlisted instead of public.
|
|
It retains the sensitive flag and spoiler warnings.
|
|
|
|
Some tracking parameters, like those beginning with
|
|
[utm_](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UTM_parameters) are stripped. It also tries
|
|
to rewrite [AMP](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Accelerated_Mobile_Pages) URLs to
|
|
point at the real webpages.
|
|
|
|
