Clean up copied URLs
I propose a feature to automatically strip tracking data from copied URLs; most sites when you copy a URL include a ton of tracking data in them, often in the form of a series of "utm_" parameters. I often manually remove these when sharing these URLs.
Similarly, Google links when copied from search results are wrapped in "amp" I absolutely love Paste. A feature I'd really appreciate would be to strip tracking data from copied links .. i.e. here's a redfin link from a random email:
I'd like to auto strip everything after the ?.
A related feature would be to auto-de-amp google links. I.e. change https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&opi=89978449&url=https://www.blueowl.us/blogs/news/the-lacing-guide-4-ways-to-lace-your-boots&ved=2ahUKEwiRzYe4gpWGAxVgD1kFHYMmCtsQFnoECBsQAQ&usg=AOvVaw0B8rvgW_zK4WyCvTbaIwH_ to just what's in the "url" parameter.

This is necessary, and I'm even surprised it hasn't been implemented yet
