|
* Purpose
|
|
When using the ~Share~ button -> ~Copy~ button to copy the share link, YouTube
|
|
adds a tracking portion to the URL.
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Installation
|
|
** Firefox
|
|
Install yt-share-cleaner using the AMO link above.
|
|
|
|
** Chrome, Chromium-based browsers
|
|
These are not supported, but the extension should work on them as well.
|
|
|
|
Not available on the Chrome Web Store. I am not inclined to pay Google's
|
|
registration fee. See your browser's documentation on installing 3rd-party
|
|
extensions.
