Simplify URL Sharing with CanonicalCopy
CanonicalCopy is a free Chrome add-on designed to streamline the process of copying web links. It specifically focuses on providing users with the canonical URL of a webpage, which is the primary URL that websites use to avoid duplication of content. This feature is particularly useful for those who frequently share links, as it eliminates the clutter of lengthy URLs filled with tracking parameters and analytics data.
To use CanonicalCopy, users simply click the extension icon instead of manually selecting the URL in the address bar. A convenient popup displays the canonical URL, which can be easily copied using a dedicated button or keyboard shortcuts. This straightforward functionality enhances the user experience by saving time and ensuring that shared links are clean and concise.
