"Share room" should share bare URL when sharing a Room alias
See original GitHub issueIs your suggestion related to a problem? Please describe.
When using the Share room feature, the URL displayed contains several via parameters, such as via=matrix.org. This exposes the homeserver of the user as well, which may be needless (private) extra information if you’re sharing a link to a public Room.
Describe the solution you’d like.
The user should have the (default) option to share the bare URL, without any parameters.

No. Every server has an equal copy. No server owns the room or has any special privileges or information.
Sure, the bridging itself is done by matrix.org - but even if matrix.org has an outage, all Matrix non-matrix.org users would still be able to communicate in that room and that room continues to function
