How can I check a Dub link's destination before clicking on it?

Learn how to check a Dub link’s destination to make sure it’s safe to click on.

If you’re not sure where a Dub link will take you, you can check its destination before clicking on it by adding a + sign to the end of the short link.

For example, if you want to check the destination of the short link d.to/github, you can type d.to/github+ into your browser’s address bar and press Enter.

This will take you to a page that shows you the destination URL of the short link, as well as the respective social media preview for the URL.
