New in Firefox 159: Copy Clean Link

Links often include tracking parameters that get passed along every time you share them, which can be used to track your behavior. The Copy Clean Link feature in Firefox is automatically enabled to safeguard users against this type of URL-based tracking by stripping tracking parameters from any copied URL.

1. Right-click the URL you want to copy
2. Select 'Copy Clean Link'
3. Paste the clean URL from the clipboard

@FirefoxOfficial@mastodon.social Wait a minute... A feature for the actual browser?!?!!! (Should be the default copy option, but still, it's a good thing to have)

You feeling OK, @FirefoxOfficial@mastodon.social ?

Any key combos to trigger this for us more keyboard driven people?
