I don't know if this is possible, But making the text after the / unreadable. So if you share it over for example Skype, you don't see already what's coming up. Idk if this is possible but it would be cool :-)

👍

This has been discussed by a few of us offline and is actually a quite actively requested feature.

The idea would be to use a hash instead of the actual text and connect the two in a database (probably a NoSql one). This would allow users to fill in the form and get a "short url" instead of the full text. This would also allow us to resolve #9

This feature has become to be know as the bit.ly function and has been added to the roadmap.
