Cleans URLs from various popular sites and removes tracking parameters
< Feedback on General URL Cleaner Revived
I could possibly include Yahoo. I don't use Yahoo so if you could provide some example "dirty" links and then their corresponding "clean" versions?
Here is a link I came across yesterday, prompting my query here:
https://www.yahoo.com/news/high-cholesterol-isn-t-always-080000643.html?guccounter=1&guce_referrer=aHR0cHM6Ly9jaXRpemVuZnJlZXByZXNzLmNvbS8&guce_referrer_sig=AQAAACXNkZ7eukypqlBx0vRPfsbNNgfXJI5oAcNT2AEG8-4lkUlr-x78IVZiX_z-Zv23eUrRhGlZA5X0e9_QWk4a0Rs7Gu7v5AZNRtd9QI1mynO389P7F_amg0_a59HCswnopnEfLz3KHk6sEk2rrHMYmi_d8P6Bo_wY9dyL_6uU7de7
It was hard to believe how much baggage was attached. All I would want to use if I shared it would be the basic:
https://www.yahoo.com/news/high-cholesterol-isn-t-always-080000643.html
Thanks much.
Yikes! I should be able to add some initial Yahoo support to the script this week.
Great. really appreciated.
I was able to add some initial support for Yahoo. Let me know if you see any issues or come across any more URL parameters/trackers that can be stripped
Thanks, appreciated. I'm a little confused. Now, even with Violent Monkey disabled, urls on yahoo pages are clean. It seems that the link I provided may have had its extra garbage added by someone else? Maybe a Telegram link? If so, I guess your script does not affect URLs already in the Address Bar. I'll keep watching to see if I can understand better.
Very helpful, thank you.
Could you include Yahoo? Their news stories come with a ton of trackers on them.
