        Question, is that true for all links?

        Like can I just cut out the question mark and back for all links I send?

          I think the others already gave enough detail but if you’d like to learn a little of the more technical stuff for how the URLs we see (and can edit before viewing) work, look into HTTP “GET” requests!

          You have to deduce what each key=value pair means after the question mark, and they’re separated by ampersands (&). This varies by website.

          YouTube uses the format “v=…” to point to its videos, and “t=…” to specify the time of playback.

          Not always, like the piped link above uses the parameter after the question mark to know which video to load so you would lose crucial information. It’s often pretty obvious what is important and what is not though. The parameters are separated by an & so you can cut off anything extra if you want. You can also just try it in your browser and make sure it still works before sharing it.
