clipped.page

Clip a post. Get a self-contained URL.

What

The post lives inside the URL — author, text, images, metrics — gzipped and base64url-encoded into the query string. This page decodes it and renders a stateless card. No database, no API, no auth. Open the link from anywhere; it works forever.

Clip

The extension adds a button to every post. One click scrapes the post straight from the page, then builds the d parameter that carries it — serialize, compress, make it URL-safe:

Payload ──JSON──► text ──utf8──► bytes ──gzip──► bytes ──base64url──► d

The link opens straight away. Nothing touches the X API, and nothing is stored. The link is the post.
