This is so useful. I have three questions. Tiny says this is free as it is ad supported. Where are the ads?? Also, are there usage limits on this? And, what happens if a url you submit has already been shortened before ?
The website for its api has documentation for its restful api, there’s no mention of this one. It could stop working at any time !
Python requests example
import requests
url = 'https://dwhistle.wordpress.com/2020/05/28/who-needed-to-be-saved-us-or-earth/'
base_url = 'http://tinyurl.com/api-create.php?url='
url = base_url + url
r = requests.get(url)
print(r.text)

It works if you use GET method. Not sure why you'd need to use POST.
