I hate dinglequeries too.
I wish more people would learn what can and can't be removed from a URL before sharing it. It's not that difficult, and it's easy to test that the "minified" version still works.
- nabaraz 9y agoJust curious, why do you care so much about them? They are just data for analytics. Everyone is probably just clicking on them not typing manually.
- Sylos 9y agoBecause they are data for analytics. Not everyone is a fan of that, especially when the URL points to the servers of a company with such a terrible privacy policy.
- samtoday 9y agoSurely if you dislike analytics, keeping these bogus utm parameters is "good"? They are misleading the webmaster in some form.
- jmkni 9y agoOn sites like Reddit (and maybe HN), links with those extra parameters aren't flagged as a duplicate, and end up getting posted multiple times with multiple comment threads.
