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.


On Android, I highly recommend and regularly use Léon - The URL Cleaner. It’s about as plain and simple of an app there is, just Register Léon as browser (this makes the URL Cleaner app available when you share a link), and set the Action after clean to whatever you like (I set it to Copy to clipboard, then paste the cleaned link from clipboard wherever I’m looking to actually share).
Sure it takes a few seconds longer to share a cleaned up link, but it does exactly what it’s supposed to do and strips all that tracking shit off the links you wanna share.
For a bit more control check out the alternatives list too. URLCheck is awesome
