@divya @shantini Just a quick note: you don’t need tinyurl here (and it tracks/profiles people, which can put some people off clicking/contributing, especially given the subject matter and mainstream retribution for support of Palestinians by workplaces, etc.)

@aral @divya I think we use it to make it easier to remember campaign names! I did not know about the tracking

@shantini @divya The tracking is why they’re in business :)

@aral @shantini thanks! Unfortunately I have 10 days of posts scheduled all with the shortlinks I use shortlinks because of arthritis since I can memorize & type them, instead of switching between various apps to copy & paste or writing a long link incorrectly. It also generates some agency for families to post their own links because some apps block the chuffed or gfm URLs.
