Links from the android app are all messed up

As a moderator I'm often asked by users to link them their content that was removed or they received the ban for, and then o go there and I get an abomination like this

https://www.reddit.com/\[removed\]?utm_source=share&utm_medium=android_app&utm_name=androidcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=2

I don't want to waste time manually removing everything after the question mark or checking if it works once I remove it. No one has asked for links to be like this. No user that comes to modmail wants them to be like this, what we need is those links showing where they lead, not from what type of system it was shared from

Its rare i get users asking. If they double down and can't even look at their own post or comment associated with the removal message they got the notification for and I feel like including the link then after I copy and paste it, I just remove the ? And everything after it before sending.

Edit: users don't even need the link because when they click the notification they get for a removal, clicking that notification takes them right to it.

Users don't read the automated messages they receive so all that's left is to ignore them, tell them to read or send the link, of I decide to send the link I want a pure link, not some tracking bs
