Hi all,

About to go full no-Google, but am missing one app alternative. This is URL Forwarder: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.daverix.urlforward

It allows users to share to it like a bookmarklet. Anyone know of something else that does this?

An example use case would be browsing in your Lemmy app and sharing the post URL to another webpage.

Hmm, am I missing something in the functionality?

I like that it sanitizes the URL, but I need something that will convert a share of, say:

http://this/ site

To open a URL of http://that.site/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fthis.site

Is there a module that let's me do this?

I would need to know more details on your use case to say for certain, hard to know for sure without knowing the apps in question.
