URL Shortener for Tasks by Planner

A URL shortener for links to Tasks would be very useful.  Currently the URLs are incredibly long, cumbersome and not conducive to easy sharing.

 

URLs from Task by Planner currently appear like this:

https://teams.microsoft.com/l/entity/com.microsoft.teamspace.tab.planner/mytasks?tenantId=[REDACTED]&webUrl=https%3A%2F%2Ftasks.teams.microsoft.com%2Fteamsui%2FpersonalApp%2Falltasklists%26context%3D%7B%22subEntityId%22%3A%22%2FtaskListType%2FteamTaskList%2Fteam%2F%5BREDACTED%5D%2Fchannel%2F%5BXX%5D%3A%5BREDACTED%5D%40thread.tacv2%2Fplan%2F%5BREDACTED%5D%22%7D

This is unacceptably long and not easy to share.  Something like Bit.Ly or similar URL shortening would be much appreciated for ease of sharing Task links.

    A general and secure URL shortner for Microsoft links would also be helpful.

      Absolutely, I'm not at all comfortable using 3rd party URL shortening services for something that should be built into Teams.
