I really wish web browsers would strip tracking code bullshit from URLs. When I copy/paste a link for friends I always manually edit that crap.

On the other hand I do love websites like WireCutter which only exists because of referral codes.

You can do this with an extension like https://gitlab.com/KevinRoebert/ClearUrls

I found that it broke some sites though so I removed it.

Yes wirecutter exist because of affiliate links but they do offer detailed reviews. I use/trust them often for purchases and amazon affiliates do not cost the user anything extra.
