I use duckduckgo. It shows the sites I’ve visited, and tracking attempts. And, yes, there are tracking attempts from bluesky. There are no tracking attempts from lemmy.ca

They never needed to redirect to do that in the first place. It's probably just done for convenience. Websites quietly tracking outgoing links has been technically possible since the '90s.
For reference you can disable this with unlock origin https://github.com/uBlockOrigin/uAssets/pull/27500
Would the URLcheck app on android filter this out, or not because of the way it's being done?
