Problem is everone gets a new url. Haven't foun a good way to check if one link to medium is the same as another.
This breaks a number of things like duplicate checking for news aggregators and tag suggestions for bookmarking services.
Edit: checking now it seems at keast the part before hash stayed unchanged after copy-pasting into another browser and loading. Have they changed or have I misunderstood the whole time?
- throwanem 10y agoI don't think they've changed; if they have, it wasn't recent. Stripping the hash doesn't break anything that I've noticed - I assume it hoses their "share this story" tracking, but I don't really care about that.
