It's a link generated by the Dart extension.
We don't have control over any extensions so they can have telemetry or links with tracking.
Thanks. But the links are intercepted by the Do you want VSCodium to open the external website?
popup right? And that popup is from VSCodium not from the extension?
So within that popup it should be possible to strip the link from at least known tracking parameters similar as Firefox does?
So we could add a patch to strip tracking query parameters here: https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/blob/main/src/vs/workbench/contrib/url/browser/trustedDomainsValidator.ts#L80
According to the Firefox Source Docs the list with query params they strip can be found here. But that doesn't seem to be complete, as it doesn't mention utm tags but they are still stripped.
Describe the bug
As the readme states that
Telemetry is disabled
, it seems to be undesired behaviour as opening links with tracking parameters means a form of telemetry still exists.Please confirm that this problem is VSCodium-specific
This question is N/A, as VS Code does not state that Telemetry is disabled :)
Please confirm that the issue/resolution isn't already documented
To Reproduce
The one code analyzer I know that does this is Dart, but there might be others.
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
dart-code.dart-code
extensiontest.dart
runApp
call should be red underlined as it's undefinedundefined_function
Do you want VSCodium to open the external website
, you can configure Trusted Domains from that popup but it does not mention anything with regards to tracking links. If you clickOpen
then it will open the link: https://dart.dev/tools/diagnostic-messages?utm_source=dartdev&utm_medium=redir&utm_id=diagcode&utm_content=undefined_function#undefined_functionExpected behavior
That VSCodium would remove the utm_* parameters. Basically similar functionality as Firefox's Copy Link Without Site Tracking

Additional context
Although the source of the link is an extension and not VSCodium, I think this issue could be solved within VSCodium's
