Thanks for removing the rest on that google link, the one I get after switching to "images" and back to "web" is this monstrosity:

https://www.google.com/search?newwindow=1&sca_esv=8061bd9cb1...

Edit: which luckily and sensibly Hacker News cuts short since it's 463 characters

You can post the string as text (indent by 2+ spaces) to avoid that trimming.

Since the purpose is to show the full URL with trackers and other cruft, that's sensible here:

And yeah, that's pretty awful.

In conclusion, Google must be destroyed.

Yeah I removed the rest of the link as an example of how much cleaner the urls can be with that addon haha. I was being meta
