predstrogen: yeah yeah online privacy is important but really i just hate those share tracking things at the end of links because they look ass ugly

yeah generally everything after the "?" in a URL is safe to delete.
Not realy. Youtube for example uses stuff after the "?" to actualy specify the video you want.
That's why they said "generally"
Well played
hehe
ClearURLs is an extention to automaticly remove tracking elements.
Oooh, thank you! I don't know why it never crossed my mind to look for an extension like this. D'oh!
ClearURLs is an extension that automatically removes trackers and is available for all browsers
if ur on android or don't want to install too many extensions you can also use uBlock Origin with a custom filterlist such as the builtin "AdGuard URL Tracking Protection" or DandelionSprout's Legitimate URL Shortener (which is included in my usable web guide wink wink nudge nudge)
you don't need both lists enabled as the dandelionsprout one has all the rules from the adguard one inside it
Nice! Glad that there are options.
