[Feature Request] Jodel social app

[xyrolaith]

Jodel is a local social app which has switched to uneccessary long sharing URLs a while ago.

Example URL: http://shared.jodel.com/a/key_live_jcZZZZnKwxb53xxxxAAAAijozto4YYY1?%24identity_id=123456789012345678&feature=shared_post&campaign=image_DE_FrontPage&type=0&duration=0&source=android&data=eyIkY2Fub25pY2FsX2lkZW50aWZpZXIiOiJzYWpcLzY2ZTdmYzAzNTYyNTA3ZGVlYjFhMDEzNiIsIiRwdWJsaWNseV9pbmRleGFibGUiOiJ0cnVlIiwicG9zdElkIjoiNjZlN2ZjMDM1NjI1MDdkZWViMWEwMTM2IiwiJGRlc2t0b3BfdXJsIjoiaHR0cHM6XC9cL3NoYXJlLmpvZGVsLmNvbVwvcG9zdD9wb3N0SWQ9NjZlN2ZjMDM1NjI1MDdkZWViMWEwMTM2IiwicmVmZXJyZXJfaWQiOiI1YWU1OGYzMDBhMDA1NTdmN2M0MzMwNDUiLCIkYW5kcm9pZF91cmwiOiJodHRwczpcL1wvc2hhcmUuam9kZWwuY29tXC9wb3N0P3Bvc3RJZD02NmU3ZmMwMzU2MjUwN2RlZWIxYTAxMzYiLCIkaW9zX3VybCI6Imh0dHBzOlwvXC9zaGFyZS5qb2RlbC5jb21cL3Bvc3Q%2FcG9zdElkPTY2ZTdmYzAzNTYyNTA3ZGVlYjFhMDEzNiJ9?channel=copy

To get the shorter sharing URL, the value from the URL parameter "data" must be base64 decoded. Also note the %2F in the example which means the string should be URL decoded beforehand.

The result is a JSON object where the short URL ($android_url) can be extracted from:

{
    "$canonical_identifier": "saj\/66e7fc03562507deeb1a0136",
    "$publicly_indexable": "true",
    "postId": "66e7fc03562507deeb1a0136",
    "$desktop_url": "https:\/\/share.jodel.com\/post?postId=66e7fc03562507deeb1a0136",
    "referrer_id": "5ae58f300a00557f7c433045",
    "$android_url": "https:\/\/share.jodel.com\/post?postId=66e7fc03562507deeb1a0136",
    "$ios_url": "https:\/\/share.jodel.com\/post?postId=66e7fc03562507deeb1a0136"
}

Currently the URL is exactly the same for Android, iOS and desktop but who knows if this might change.
