What do you mean? This is supposed to be sent to my friends. To a friend, a real message would be like “I’m using Firefox, get it at firefox.com” and not “I’m using Firefox, get it at domain.tld/garbage”.
This time the “short” link isn’t unique, but they still did this for tracking purposes and not for “convenience”. I didn’t check it but it will definitely resolve to something like firefox.com for maximum tracking analysis

Perhaps, but that does not mean it’s not the case.

if i see domain.tld/garbage i have to assume they did it for tracking, not the opposite

No, that’s wrong. All url shorteners work exactly like that. How did you get the initial link anyway?
