Of course it does. Firefoxes new ClearURL copy feature is great
This was the final thing that convinced me to give Firefox another go, thank you.
One of us! One of us! Firefox is fucking amazing, just set up all the recommended extensions like ublock origin and privacy badger.
uBlock Origin is now recommended by Firefox itself!? Or did you mean the community?
Mostly all extensions recommended by the community. However there is a recommended section on mozilla addons as well
Adds?
I thought they always had them?

It wasn’t until a few months ago did YouTube add them.
This extension will automatically remove tracking elements from URLs to help protect your privacy when browsing through the Internet.
Firefox:

Chrome:

Heads up, I had to remove this extension on my browser because some websites would get stuck in a redirect loop because it’d remove the tracking stuff it’d use in a redirect chain. Took me months to figure out what was causing it
This is built-in to firefox rightclick menu when copying the URL, no extension needed. Less extensions means less fingerprint
That’ll address the case where one is copy-pasting an URL, but not where following existing links.
I made a PWA that can quickly remove tracking variables called Link Cleaner. If you install it through Chrome or another Chromium browser on Android, it shows up as a share target, so you can share links to Link Cleaner and then share again to the intended target.
I don’t understand how to install it. Looked in Google Play store but didn’t find it there.
It’s a PWA, which basically means it’s just a website. If you’re using Firefox on mobile opening up the website won’t ask you to install it.
When you’re in Chrome or another browser, there’s an install option in the main overflow (three dots) menu.
if i open a youtube link with a share id in newpipe, am I still ok, does it ignore the id? or do i need to delete the id first?
