PurePaste

PurePaste is a privacy friendly utility that cleans common tracking parameters from URLs you copy. For more serious tools, please checkout uBO.

Install steps:

Download ZIP here
Open Terminal, and paste xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine ~/Downloads/PurePaste.app (security doesn't like none identified developers).
Move the app to Applications, or again paste mv ~/Downloads/PurePaste.app /Applications/PurePaste.app
open the app

or if you want to package locally, run bash ./scripts/build-dmg.sh.

How it works

PurePaste watches your clipboard while active, removes tracking params and updates the clipboard.

In the app menu:

Options > Refetch rules reloads the latest parsedRules.json from the repo URL.
Options > Reset counter resets the global removed-parameter counter.

This project includes and modifies rule data from:

uBlock Origin uAssets https://github.com/uBlockOrigin/uAssets Licensed under GPL-3.0
ClearURLs Rules https://gitlab.com/ClearURLs/rules Licensed under LGPL-3.0

The merged rules (from ubo and ClearUrl) are licensed under GPL-3.0.
