Okay. If you still prefer to not having it add the below javascript in your discourse customization. It’s working fine for me as you wanted.

```
<script>
jQuery( document ).ready(function() {
    $('#main').on('click', '.widget-button.share', function () {
        var url = $(this).attr('data-share-url');
        var i = url.indexOf('?');
        if(i > 0)
            url = url.substring(0, i);
        $(this).attr('data-share-url', url);
    });
});
</script>

```
