Magnet Links

Tired of having issues when you try to open a magnet link? This extension helps by adjusting the links to go through Put.io, to your clipboard, or to any URL you want.

You know how urls start with http:// or https://? Well, some start with `magnet:` and by default most devices do not know how to handle this. Magnet Links lets you choose how you want these urls handled.

This app is not affiliated with Put.io

Hello there, for a sample for what this extension does visit this page and try to click on the URLs before using the extension and after using the extension.

For example, by default a Mac doesn't know what to do with a magnet link, which looks like this:

magnet:?xt=urn:btih:6H6NYFDC2NSTB5JGYHMUALXMSEALPOQY&dn=ubuntu-21.10-desktop-amd64.iso&xl=3116482560&tr=https%3A%2F%2Ftorrent.ubuntu.com%2Fannounce

what my extension does is prefixes it with a Put.io url

https://put.io/default/magnet?url=

so that Put.io can download the file for you.

So the final URL after my script runs should look like this:
https://put.io/default/magnet?url=magnet:?xt=urn:btih:6H6NYFDC2NSTB5JGYHMUALXMSEALPOQY&dn=ubuntu-21.10-desktop-amd64.iso&xl=3116482560&tr=https%3A%2F%2Ftorrent.ubuntu.com%2Fannounce

and when loaded Put.io will handle the download.
