Firefox 사용자 11640498 님, 8년 전ClearURLs is a must!
Why this and not other similar add-on?
Most of the other adds-on have around 13 rules to remove garbage fields. But ClearURLs has 65 rules to remove garbage fields and much of them are regex-rules (so the rule does not only block one field, it blocks all fields with the same structure). Also, ClearURLs is a open source.
If you are a kind of average user looking to improve privacy without loosing a decade studying a PhD in tech details... ClearURLs is the most complete ready-to-use plug-and-play alternative.
I would like to suggest future requests to the author:
1) To test the system performance impact of the 65 rules. I don't have know-how to distinguish if the 65 rules are indispensable. If "yes", then keep all and add more rules! But if some of them are exceptional and affects system resources/performance, then it could be interesting to prioritize system performance.
2) To evolve ClearURLs in an all-in-one add-on for URLs nasty issues ("clearing", "redirecting", "skipping" etc).
I perfectly understand the author' point of view, in the sense that some requests demand tons of work, not just for build the add-on, but also for keep it updated, supported etc. But from the user' point of view, less adds-on, less system resources, better performance etc... is always more than welcome and most desirable.
I will be more than happy to help donating for this kind of all-in-one add-on.
Congrats and thank you to the author!

- Unfortunately, ClearURLs blocks sorting rules like star ratings on Amazon (e.g. clicks on alternating star ratings or newest and verified purchases only). There's also no toggle for quickly disabling clear URLs on specific sites. A whitelist or easy customization for individual websites via parameters/filters would be crucial for continued use of this otherwise excellent add-on. Thank you!

- 5점 만점에 4점Elegant Space Finger 님, 한 달 전Great extension. I've been using it for a while, and am generally pleased with what it does and the near complete problem-free functioning over time. It plays nicely with uBO and LocalCDN which provide a couple of the same features that this extension provides.
One problem has popped up with recent versions of Firefox though. Since there's been no update for this extension since February 2025, the cause may be those recent Firefox updates. As of writing this review, I'm using Firefox 149.0 (aarch64) on macOS 26.4. I do not have it installed in my Firefox Developer Edition install, and I do not use Chrome, so I am reporting this for the standard production Firefox releases.
I do not want to create a GitLab account to report a single issue and for no other reason as all my development is done using repos hosted on Codeberg and GitHub.
The problem: The context menu item for "Copy Clean Link Location" rarely if ever works now. It used to. It rarely if ever adds anything to the clipboard, even the unmodified, original link I'm trying to get a cleaned copy of. The few times I do get something when using the context menu item, key parameters meant to be removed by the extension are left in the URL that is added to the clipboard. But actually getting a copied link rarely works, and all that using it does is leave my clipboard untouched with the previously copied data ready to be pasted.
Fix that context menu issue and this is a five-star extension. - 5점 만점에 5점Firefox 사용자 19806967 님, 한 달 전
