Grabify URL masking

I'm new here and unsure where this belongs, so please redirect me if I'm wrong.

I'm looking for other creative ways to mask a grabify URL without using other sites such as bitly, etc. I looked around GitHub a little bit and found several ways you can mask a URL, but some doesn't seem to work with a grabify URL as that URL itself has a redirected link. Are there any other ways out there to make the URL look as real as it can get? Or even possibly a method using something similar to 'maskurl' on GitHub? People are more suspect to URL shorteners these days. I was also thinking if it was possible there could be something out there just like maskurl but will grab IP's when you create the new masked link. Any suggestions?

I do not know any other form of masking besides bitly, but there is a way to get folks to click it through some social engineering. I taught many people to avoid any type of links, but people will still click them regardless, so there's a chance there. Some big corpos I see tend to use bitly links to promote articles and such, so maybe an idea there?
If one of the shortened URL options or tracking pixels are not good for you, I see that Grabify supports custom domains.

Thank you for this info.
