Show HN: PasteClean – Desktop app to strip tracking parameters from clipboard

Based, PasteClean – Desktop app to strip tracking parameters from clipboard works in show hn launch.

Profile

I built a small desktop tool called PasteClean to solve a personal annoyance: sharing URLs filled with tracking garbage (utm_source, fbclid, etc.).It runs in the background and automatically cleans URLs in your clipboard when you copy them. It handles 50+ tracking parameters and can also unshorten links (bit.ly, t.co) to reveal the destination and clean them before pasting.Tech stack is Electron/React/TypeScript.The core privacy features are free. I added a "Pro" lifetime license for some advanced features (unshortening, batch mode) to support development.

PasteClean – Desktop app to strip tracking parameters from clipboard is positioned in show hn launch, a segment that rewards a clear, focused offering.

The company is listed at the Show HN launch stage of development.
