When you post a link, PLEASE remove the "?" and the trackers that follow it.
Random example; I picked this link from Fakebook. You can see that it's from Fakebook because it includes "fbclid".
As well as showing that it's from a Fakebook user, it probably also includes other information about me. (Well, it would if I hadn't changed some characters!)
The link works perfectly well without the trackers:
https://www.quordlepuzzles.com/collections/store-closing
A while ago, someone here posted a link to Reddit. The trackers in the link allowed me to log in to their Reddit account and to post as them! (Naughty me.) So PLEASE don't do it!
Disclaimer: I have no connection with quordlepuzzles. It's just a random link that I picked.
EDIT: Youtube links do need the part with the ? in them. More specifically the watch?v=random characters part. Also might include a jump to a start time as in &time=456s
Thanks to u/metalheadtruth for reminding me!
VPN - yeah Tor works reliably in my experience - BUT the caveat is there is a Captcha put up by Archive.yz and it's not just one, it will be like FIVE fucking iterations of buses, crosswalks, the kind that you have to keep clicking as more show up till done etc, so for all intensive porpoises, it doesn't work for me.
