Thankfully haven’t seen AMP links posted to lemmy in a loooong time. At the beginning of the migration it was pretty painful though, had to use some de-amputator website to fix the links since there was (and still is) no bot to handle them
Keep in mind, there are many valid reasons for tracking or things that can be utilized to track or fingerprint you. I however feel there’s no transparency, there is often no basis for trust for these websites and I feel they share/sell data with reckless abandon so it is from that angle I approach issues like these from.
Oh for sure, I don’t mind it at all that Wikipedia puts a referrer in the end to indicate what platform the link is shared from. Of course that’s far cry from proper tracking and whatnot.

Google search does it too. Hangouts used to. Not sure about Messages and other Google services.

Even Wikipedia does it. I think it’s to see what platforms people are using it on
