I just figured out how to use that feature and it’s not as clean as manual pruning. You right click on the URL field and choose Copy Without Site Tracking, but it still leaves half the junk.
look for the “?” take out anything after it. If that breaks the page, look for the last “&” and keep taking that (and anything after it) until the shortest possible working link emerges. 99% of the time step 1 will work
Someone’s gotta teach their kids how to prune links. 3/4 of that isn’t needed.
Firefox will now do it for you
Oh? In crayon??
Seriously though, awesome feature.

Please teach me the ways. How does one prune links?

Much appreciated, thanks!
That was good general advice, but with Amazon links, anything starting from /ref= can be deleted so it ends with that product/idnumber.
It’s an Amazon link, so all you really need is the ASIN: b0032hf60m
