It's the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again

I think your link is a unique "share" link used for tracking who clicks on it

https://www.reddit.com/r/privacy/comments/18u7q0v/reddit_now_tracks_whose_links_you_click_and_this/

Don't use the share function/button of websites, just take the link you want to share from your browser's URL field directly like this:

https://www.reddit.com/r/politics/comments/1c3rgkj/white_house_condemns_death_to_america_chants_at/

(you can also leave the part at the end (after the last slash) out if you want, I think it's called a "slug": https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clean_URL#Slug)

here's an android app that helps to remove tracking information from a url, its changed my life for the better

This application acts as an intermediary when opening url links. When you do so, a window containing information about the url is displayed, allowing you to make changes to it as well.
Specially useful when you need to open an external link either from an email, a social network app or others.

There is also this Firefox extension that will clear them for you: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/clearurls/
