Fixvx URL Modifier Extension

Welcome to Fixvx URL Modifier, a Chrome extension designed to make it easier to share posts to places like Discord so your friends can easily see your images/videos.

This uses the proxy from https://github.com/dylanpdx/BetterTwitFix to handle the requests.

Key Features:

Want to share the embed friendly Twitter (X) link? hit Ctrl+C while on a tweet/post while not clicking on anything on the page (this means not highlighting the URL bar for privacy reasons)

Highlight-to-Copy Flexibility: Only want to copy specific text? No problem! Our extension is designed to understand your needs. If you highlight text, Ctrl+C will copy just the text, not the URL. It's all about giving you control and flexibility.

User-Friendly Design: We focus on simplicity and efficiency. There are no complicated settings or configurations. Just install the extension, and it works in the background, ready when you need it.

Secure and Privacy-Friendly: Your privacy matters to us. The extension works locally on your browser without sending data externally, ensuring your browsing habits and data remain private.
