stop putting garbage in URL parameters
- URLs weren't supposed to have tracking
- 30 years of internet but still no reason to put anything but query parameters
- wanted to make a link unreadable for a laugh? we have a tool for that: it was called url shorteners

"Hey here's the link: shork.xyz?shared_by=shork&searched_for=great%20shark%20websites&just_random_letters_and_numbers=asdasghklsdhg1234124124"
they have played us for absolute fools
thank you firefox 120 for allowing me to copy links without this garbage.
edit: only utm parameters?! grrr
can't wait for firefox 121 where clicking on a link or another application opening the link also removes the garbage (ok, that's pure speculation on my part, but the new copy link button is real)
