Why is it that when I'm in firefox I always get random fragment identifiers in my url addresses? This doesn't happen on any of my other web browsers as far as I know. Is it that the other ones resolve it, but firefox can't?

In case anyone is wondering what that is it's the little hash-tag that's at the end of the url. e.g. →#.TgZusoLHQpM

Yeah, that seems to be happening in the new versions of firefox.

I'm not sure why it does it, but it doesn't seem to impact going to the link in any way.

It may just make the link into a hotlink instead of showing it just as https://knowyourmeme.com in the forums.

It's for addressbar tracking in addthis.

That would make a lot of sense then because it changes every time you reload the page.
