You can use the shorter .be url – just only copy up to (not including) the question mark.
If you’re disinclined to endure any inconvenience, you can put this in a userscript to strip the tracking code automatically (including what the copy button saves):
const listener = newMutationObserver((mutations, observer) => {
// query blindly until found - it's never listed as an addedNodeconst field = document.querySelector("#share-url");
if(!field) return;
field.value = field.value.split("?")[0];
// SPA and navigation events/functions not catching anything, so just listen forever :/// listener.disconnect();
});
listener.observe(document.body, {childList: true, subtree: true});
URLs that link to “youtu.be” include tracking bugs. Don’t share such links. This is the correct URL: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=al9yWA4TUII … but it’s propaganda, anyway
