  • What do I do to get rid of the tracking now?

    You stop using these services.

    I’m a programmer, and if they generate page URLs that are unique to you with your tracking baked in, do not allow you to view the page non-logged in, then there’s no way to get rid of it, short of hacking their servers/databases.

    If you can view it without an account, then you just browse without an account, without using a browser that has a unique fingerprint. So basically use something like the Tor one. Unfortunately for Instagram, I think both is not possible.

    Of course it might be like the other comment says, it’s only the special share URL that is like this, and the one you browse around normally isn’t. Then you just use that one.





  • I don’t think so. It should have an easy way of reopening - if it has, and you’re flooded with tickets on an open source project that you can’t possibly handle all, then it’s a good way to prioritize. Of course it doesn’t have an easy way to reopen here, which sucks, it’s some kind of locking instead of just closing it with a possibility to reopen.

    Old tickets have a non-zero chance of the reporter being the only one to run into it because of a weird setup/usecase (and then abandoning the project), it being fixed by other work, or probably a bunch of other reasons it could be obsolete.

    If no one cares enough to reopen it once every 6 months, then it’s probably fine to ignore it indefinitely.
