    I use "Copy Link" buttons pretty religiously on my phone because they tend to remove trailing URL parameters, saving me from manually selecting only the front part of the link.

    Thinking about this, it would be nice if my browser had a button for that.

      Firefox has a "copy clean link" button for hyperlinks and in the address bar.

    Good article!

    There's a new one I've noticed in a lot of places, "add us as a Preferred Source to Google".

      Yah. Smells rather orwellian, if you ask me. It's especially funny when you see they are mostly offering the same shit by a few news-agencies, just wrapped in different packaging.

      The new ministry of truth, so to speak.

      Edit: OFC one can disable that with a few clicks in uBo :-)

    I do, because YouTube mobile is now an atrocious SPA where you cannot copy the video URL from the browser anymore.

      What kind of Mickey Mouse browser are you using?

      Yes you can copy the URL.
