Reddit, YouTube, facebook and all of the other social media websites track the urls I copied. Whenever you copy a link, check out, it is not the actual url and/or it contains a track id in the url. I can’t share anything with the people any more, and click their links, because I hate being tracked.
Delete everything after the ‘?’ in the url before sharing it, and you should be good to go.
Reddit now copies without the ‘?’ but the copied url has tracking in it. Because when I open the url in browser, the page opens and then I see the tracking id. Before that, it is a simple url, with encrypted data
Stop using reddit
Removing all query parameters is not the solution. They can be used for tracking, but not necessarily.
If you have a better solution, I’m sure we’d all appreciate it. :)
