I just found out about an Android app where you can set up custom redirects for any links, OS-wide: https://github.com/TrianguloY/URLCheck

It's a little finnicky to set up, but I'm enjoying it so far. It goes beyond alternative frontend redirects. You can strip URL params, check domains against a blacklist, and choose native apps to open links that match a pattern.

Nice, I was looking around for something like this and found this Android app instead: https://codeberg.org/hermeticvm/linkahest

I started using this last week and it's simple and useful. My main challenge was that I use YT/Reddit/X apps but I hate how the recipients I shared links to posts or videos with often couldn't access it without having to disable ad blockers or having to login first.
