Please accept this in the ethos of no stupid questions.
The only programming I do is to defy tracking by deleting hash lines after ? In the url.
Some popular sites I am embarrassed to admit to even viewing have found a way around this by offering me share links without the ?.
It’s Instagram I am ashamed to mention.
What do I do to get rid of the tracking now?
You stop using these services.
I’m a programmer, and if they generate page URLs that are unique to you with your tracking baked in, do not allow you to view the page non-logged in, then there’s no way to get rid of it, short of hacking their servers/databases.
If you can view it without an account, then you just browse without an account, without using a browser that has a unique fingerprint. So basically use something like the Tor one. Unfortunately for Instagram, I think both is not possible.
Of course it might be like the other comment says, it’s only the special share URL that is like this, and the one you browse around normally isn’t. Then you just use that one.
