An uBlock Origin custom filtrer should do.

Hmm, I thought ublock origin could only block links, not rewrite them. Am I missing something? I just looked through the docs and only see block/allow/noop rules, and I remember reading something a while back about how the devs didn't want to rewrite. I'd love to have a pointer to the docs about how to do this if I'm wrong. Thanks ;)

Added: https://old.reddit.com/r/uBlockOrigin/comments/b9tdky/rule_for_redirecting_urls_to_cleaner_ones/ points to some github issues related to this.

Use removeparam.

The URL tracking protection filter list uses this and is a nice list to enable.

Thanks! I saw the GH issue about that but didn't figure out that it had been deployed.
