- (2023-02-15) Bubblegum: Clean and minimal UI, well explained options, and a shortcut function. 10/10 couldn't ask for more
- (2022-09-01) kraiton1: I have been using it for a long time now I have also installed the extension ..Thank you
- (2021-10-13) Michael Dickson: Works great. Quick and easy. Highly recommended.
- (2021-06-06) Nathan Wray: Don't let the "last updated" date fool you, this open source apache licensed extension is simple and still works. Just what I was looking for.
- (2019-08-02) Hiro Kobayashi (hirokoby): I think this is a wonderful URL shortener. BUT, would it be possible to add a "Title" feature, so that the title and shortened URL can be copied?
- (2019-05-14) Edward James Freeman Joss: By far the best. URL Shortener does exactly what it says on the tin, and it allows you to choose which of five url-shortening services to use (also "none", i.e., copy the current url to clipboard unaltered). There are no extra steps, such as the pointless two-stage get-the-shortened-url followed by "now copy it" of at least one other inferior url-shortening extension.
- (2019-05-09) Bob Korbel: Simply the best. It does what is says and does it well.
- (2016-11-05) Bashir Abba (bash550): This is the best URL shortener out there. I tried out quit a few, but they all had one issue or the other. I was also pleasantly surprised to see that it listed t1p.de as one of its optional shortening service providers.
- (2015-05-11) Andreas Gutowski: Einfach und gut. Danke für die Erweiterung.
