When posting Twitter links, you can safely omit the ?s19, etc...

Just a public service announcement for those who may not know. Using Joe's currently-pinned tweet as an example, if I copy the address, it looks (space is intentional so it shows just the address) like this;

https:// twitter.com/JoeBiden/status/1266949697874415618?s=20


If you paste that, it shows the Tweet, but the DU ignores everything after the ? mark, and prints it as text undedrneath.

Link to tweet

?s=20

but if you remove that part before you post, it comes out nice and clean;

Link to tweet

I believe the number indicates simply the source, 19 for mobile app, 20 for Windows or other desktop OS, but not 100% sure. In general, it is safe to strip anything after a ? mark in a URL when posting it, it is just a query string.

1. Yes, I always eliminate everything after the ?

First I learn about the power of K-Pop, then I learn about this. It's a big learning day for Granny over here. (Not that old, but feeling it with the K-Pop story. Loving the kids!)
