The bot always fixed me. Now today only you seen this. I won't waste my time arguing this with you.

What is this banter / argument about?
Can someone explain or post a link? What are tracker tags? What is the policy in question? Is there any faq about this?
What is the drama about twitter vs xcancel / nitter / whatever that is?

In order to reach the content, you only need this part:

This part that follows the ? is the "tracker tag":

The tracker tag isn't required to reach the content, it harvests your data by clustering users who clicked on a particular tracked link.
tl;dr, it's terrible for privacy, and you should always remove the tracker tag before sharing any URL.
