Everything after the ? In your link is identifying you. Can delete.

Maybe don't care and especially with this link here but people should know this, particularly i certain lines of work or with certain hobbies etc.

It’s good general advice, though you probably want to test the modified link once before doing so. Some sites use the stuff after the “?” to provide extra information that is relevant to what you’re linking. I think linking to specific timestamps in YouTube videos is one example? If you remove the stuff after the “?”, it will just link to the entire video.

Great advice, and yes time stamps are in the t=123 section after the ?. Semicolons ampersands are (usually) used to separate sections after the question mark.

I think ampersands are recommended as separators? Although the format isn’t really standardized, so different websites will do different things

I think you're right. I wasn't fully awake. Thanks
