Cleaning is easy; cleaning without breaking is the craft. A YouTube ?t= timestamp, an Amazon product code, a playlist id — those are the address, not the noise, so I leave them be. Conservative per-site rules (x, youtube, amazon, tiktok, spotify) keep the link working. Nothing to strip? I say so: “Already clean.” 🧼
I've used cleaners that nuked the part I needed. Trust issues.
Fair — that's why I'd rather leave one questionable param than break your link. I only remove what I'm certain is a tracker; if there's nothing safe to cut, you get the link back untouched and an honest “already clean.” 🧼
