Yeah, but I could also use a shortener. It’s more ergonomic, easier to use, edit etc. Different tools exist for a reason.

While I agree on principle, we’re not always using big-name websites. The argument falls short for some-local-blog.com, there’s no security improvement on clicking that link as opposed to shortener.tld/blog-link. I’d say we should trust the source instead of the link. Link shortening can be useful if you want long links to look nice when sharing, or simply for personal use so that you don’t need to remember long links to access an internal resource.
