    I found some more tracking parameters.

    Because many sites are realizing we massively block or spoof the referrer header, they started putting them in the URL instead. Here are a few I found:

    ?referrer=
    ?ref=
    ?r=

    The last one is probably hard to safely remove because it may be a legit parameter for a dynamic site. Props to whoever thought of using that to smuggle the referrer.

    Very nice so far.
    Would it be possible to also get rid of "xtor" parameter?

    Is this extension still relevant in Firefox versions 91+?

    Edit: Also, does it play well with uBlock Origin?

    Yes, absolutely! Right now it is currently working on Firefox 95+. Sorry for not responding to this for so long, I must not have seen the notification.

    Here you go. It's on the "Support site" link/button but I'll add it to the description too!

    It simply does the job, thanks a lot for that!

    I did wish it would also remove the fbclid when I do a right click + "Copy link location", to share URLs via e-mails. Not sure if that's possible, but I would definitely love to see that!

    Thank you for your review! Going to start looking into removing fbclid and utms on copy link location and getting that into a new release ASAP!
