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

2•hlyhfhl•1d ago
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!

Two suggestions:

1) Your site is very wordy. It comes across a lot more "tell" than "show." How about _showing_ QR code links, _showing_ form/survey links, _showing_ analytics, _showing_ the difference between regular links and mobile deep-links, etc.? I should be able to see at-a-glance your features and then click to read details as needed.

2) I couldn't find where you address how short links might not be well-received in some places. Certain social media sites and corporate email filters will reject short links. Maybe put that in your FAQ.
