I don't want to suggest a technology, but the URL shortener on wdqs has
been EXTREMELY USEFUL to me and it would be major bummer to lose it. I
recently taught a class and used a variety of examples of SPARQL queries
over wikidata. Having that shortener made it much faster for me to
assemble the lecture and give people easy ways to get to those queries.
I could have used another one on my own I guess, but the current
implementation is much faster and less error prone when dealing with
monster sparqling urls...
please find a way to keep it

While I agree the primary aim isn't
shortening, the result is usually
much shorter by virtue of cutting out everything non essential to
identification.
Except in the case of a giant query string, such as a complex SPARQL
query.
