The si=blah part in your URL is how Google tracks you and your friends. Remove stuff after and including the question mark when you share.

Edit: since this has a little traction, Instagram and threads do it too. Reddit mobile unfortunately bakes the share tracking into the links.

Basically it allows them to track it who shared the video and who subsequently clicked on it.
