🏳️🌈🎃🇧🇷Luana🇧🇷🎃🏳️🌈Everything after the "?" symbol can be removed without issue
Uhhhh not really
That also has stuff like timestamps. And in some links, such as on youtube.com/watch?v=videocode, the actually important part of the link is also after the ? (as opposed to on youtu.be/videocode).

@luana @Uglesett playlist also. So e.g. how would one clean up this link?

So much stuff here, but all of it is necessary.

v indicates which video it is, list indicates which playlist it is, t indicates the timestamp. Granted, this isn't a youtu.be link, but only because that one already removes playlist, so it's not useful for sharing videos with their context intact.
The Problem with Video Essays
Lin NahThat's not tracking.
The link to the video is https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IsiKUsrqFkc
the "&list=" means the video is part of a playlist - there are other videos following it.
t=52 means start the video 52seconds in. If you remove "&t=52" it just starts from the beginning
