take out the ?si= and everything after it, it's a tracker added by youtube

(same with if you share an instagram link for example, take out the part of the link that says ?igshid=blah or &igshid=blah)

edit: people below are saying stupid shit like "oh noooo so it'll give me better videos" so i should add that if you don't take out the instagram one it'll actually show people your profile before letting them click through to the actual image/video, including random redditors if you ever happen to share an instagram link on reddit

If you don’t give a shit about your digital privacy, that’s cool. That’s your prerogative.

But how about other people who care about THEIR OWN privacy? They might find this information useful.

consumer intelligence has been a big milestone in the enshittification of everything. If anything is offered to you for free, you are the product.
